Procurement and Supply Planner - Food Manufacturing
Greenacre, NSW | Full-time, permanent | On-site | $90K - 100K + super
Our client is a fast-growing, large-scale food manufacturing business based in Greenacre. With turnover growing more than tenfold in four years, they've built a genuinely high-volume production operation and are now investing in the people to match the scale - starting with this role in their procurement team.
About the role
This isn't a transactional buying role. You'll be joining a business processing hundreds of tonnes of product a week, where 80% of production runs off a small core of critical SKUs - so getting the plan right matters. You'll work between production planning and procurement, forecasting and managing supply against manufacturer lead times of 6-14 weeks, rather than reacting once something's run out.
You'll work alongside an experienced, long-standing member of the planning team, and will be expected to bring fresh ideas and rigour to a function that is currently very manual, the business is partway through an ERP rollout and needs someone comfortable improving process along the way.
What you'll be doing
Developing and managing supply plans against manufacturer lead times, working proactively rather than reactively




Bridging demand & production planning with procurement execution
Managing supplier relationships across domestic and overseas supply
Maintaining accuracy across a small number of high-impact SKUs where errors carry real cost
Supporting the transition from manual, Excel-based processes to a new ERP system
Working closely with an existing planning team member to strengthen and challenge current ways of working
What we're looking for
Experience in supply planning, demand planning, or procurement within a manufacturing or FMCG environment
Strong Excel skills; experience with Microsoft Dynamics (AX/D365) or similar ERP systems highly regarded
A planning mindset - comfortable forecasting and managing long lead times, not just processing purchase orders
High attention to detail and reliability; this role has real bottom-line impact
Someone who wants to be part of building better process, not just maintaining the status quo
Food or dairy manufacturing background is a bonus, not a requirement
What's on offer
The chance to shape a growing function within a business scaling rapidly
A collaborative, hands-on team workplace
Full-time, on-site role in Greenacre
