About the position
A Raw Material Planner in Flora is responsible for ensuring uninterrupted availability of raw materials to support production, while adapting to fluctuating demand and operational changes. The role is primarily executed in SAP, where the planner manages material parameters, monitors stock levels, processes MRP signals, and converts purchasing and stock requirements into executable actions.
