Vacancy Specification

In this role, you will be responsible for improving forecast accuracy across PTZ and Stock Held products by monitoring performance, identifying trends and anomalies, and addressing root causes of variance. You will enhance supplier visibility through reliable forecast insights, challenge and refine ordering logic, and drive data-led system improvements. Using strong analytical and coding skills, you will work with large datasets to generate insights, support automation, and deliver clear reporting. You will also work closely with internal teams and suppliers to resolve queries, share insights, and ensure effective collaboration and continuous improvement, while maintaining compliance with forecasting standards and GSCOP requirements.

If you’re a hardworking individual that’s ready to kick-start your career with an award-winning employer, apply to join #TeamAldi today!

Your New Role:

Forecast Review & Monitoring

Review forecast outputs for PTZ and Stock Held articles on an ongoing basis.
Spot and investigate trends, anomalies, and outliers in forecast and ordering behaviour.
Assess forecast performance with the goal of improving SMAPE accuracy.

Supplier Visibility (VFA)

Use forecast insights to help improve the quality and reliability of information suppliers see via VFA.
Identify forecast issues that may reduce supplier confidence or operational planning effectiveness.
System & Logic Improvement
Review and challenge DC ordering logic and related forecasting rules.
Recommend and support system changes based on evidence from forecast performance and data analysis.
Ensure recommended changes are measurable and aligned with improving forecast accuracy.

PTZ Supplier Focus

Review and optimise ordering and forecast drivers impacting PTZ suppliers.
Analyse store-level forecast patterns and their impact on DC and replenishment decisions.

Compliance & Standards

Apply knowledge of industry standards for forecasting practices.
Ensure forecast approaches and improvements support GSCOP compliance for forecast accuracy.

Data Handling & Coding

Work with large volumes of data to perform analysis, reconciliation, and validation.
Use coding skills to automate checks, generate insights, and improve reporting/analysis efficiency.
Maintain clear documentation of analysis methods, findings, and recommended actions.

Queries and Internal Stakeholder Engagement

Resolve supplier & internal queries: Investigate forecast-related exceptions, provide clear, evidence-based answers, and identify recurring root causes (PTZ and Stock Held focus).
Improve feedback methods & training: Enhance how feedback is captured/escalated and create/troubleshoot training materials to support understanding and adoption of forecasting changes via VFA.
Deliver governance reporting: Produce regular reporting on forecast performance (SMAPE), trends/outliers, query themes, and the impact of system changes, ensuring continuous improvement.

What Success Looks Like

Improved SMAPE accuracy through targeted analysis and effective system changes.
Reduced frequency of forecast issues caused by incorrect logic or overlooked outliers.
Increased supplier confidence through improved visibility and forecast reliability via VFA.
Demonstrable compliance with GSCOP expectations for forecasting accuracy.

About you:

Strong understanding of forecasting best practices and performance measurement (including SMAPE).
Working knowledge of GSCOP compliance requirements related to forecast accuracy.
Good understanding of PTZ, Stock Held, and end-to-end forecast/order logic (DC ordering and store-level forecasting).
Coding ability to analyse large datasets and support automation (e.g., SQL and/or Python/R—specific tooling can be discussed).
Excellent attention to detail and ability to make recommendations backed by evidence.
Strong data analysis skills, including:
Trend and outlier detection
Root-cause analysis of forecast variance
Ability to link data patterns to system logic and business impact
