Demand Planner (f/m/x)

The role: What's in the Box

We're looking for a Demand Planner who is comfortable working with data and is eager to develop their forecasting skills in a fast-paced supply chain environment. This is a hands-on analytical role: you'll spend your time writing SQL, building reports, validating forecasts, and learning how demand planning drives operational decisions.

You'll support the demand signal that drives every operational decision at HelloFresh, from how much food we order to how many staff we schedule and how many trucks we book. Your work directly contributes to reducing food waste, improving product availability, managing labour costs, and protecting customer experience for millions of meals across Europe.

Our Demand Planning team is transitioning from a legacy operating model to a unified, automated, data-driven global function. You will contribute to that transformation, supporting the build of next-generation forecasting capabilities while helping keep daily supply chain execution accurate.

What you’ll do: The Recipe

Own the day-to-day data validation and QA process across demand data pipelines. You are the first line of defence for forecast reliability, identifying anomalies, flagging data breaks, and ensuring inputs are clean before they reach the plan.

Build and maintain automated alerting for data quality issues, missing feeds, and forecast anomalies so problems are caught early, not after Operations has already acted.

Investigate discrepancies between forecast and actuals, documenting root causes and maintaining a log of known data issues to prevent recurrence.

Write and maintain SQL queries to extract, validate, and transform demand data across cloud data platforms (e.g., Databricks, Snowflake).

Support the development and refinement of forecasting models, applying statistical techniques under guidance from senior analysts, learning to work with trend, seasonality, and promotional adjustments.

Build and maintain dashboards and automated repo
