Supply Planner
ABOUT FISHWIFE
Fishwife is a woman-founded and led food company aiming to make ethically-sourced, premium, and delicious tinned seafood a staple in every cupboard. We source from responsibly managed fisheries and aquaculture farms to bring the vibrance of conservas culture to the North American table. We launched in December 2020 and have been feature by publications like The New York Times, Bon Appetit, Forbes, Vogue, LA Times, INSIDER, and many more.
POSITION OVERVIEW
Fishwife works with a global network of canneries and co-manufacturers. That makes supply planning and purchasing the link between demand and revenue, and this role owns it.
The Supply Planner turns the demand plan into action, placing and owning every purchase order across our canneries, co-manufacturers, packaging suppliers, and merchandise suppliers, and holding those partners to the readiness dates the plan depends on. When an order is at risk, you’ll be the first to know and the fastest to respond. You’ll also lead the supply side of our monthly S&OP process, so the plan you build is the plan the company and our supply partners commit to.
This is a builder role. You’ll inherit trackers and spreadsheets, and you’ll be expected to replace them with something that still works when our volume doubles. If you like owning a number, working with partners on multiple continents, and being the reason a product never goes out of stock, this is the job.
This position is a full-time, remote role reporting to the Inventory & Reporting Senior Manager.
SCOPE OF OWNERSHIP
The supply plan: replenishment, coverage, and safety stock targets by SKU and channel
Supplier and co-manufacturer readiness timelines, lead times, ship dates, and production commitments
Expediting and recovery whenever an order puts the production or inventory plan at risk
Supply inputs to the monthly S&OP process, and purchasing data accuracy in Cin7
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Production and Supply Planning
Book capacity and production slots with canneries and co-manufacturers ahead of demand rather than in reaction to it
Model the tradeoffs between the demand plan and the production plan at both component and finished goods level, and document the coverage and safety stock assumptions behind each buy
Own the supply side of monthly S&OP: what we planned to buy, what we bought, the variance, and what that variance means for cash
Oversee every PO from placement to confirmation to receipt, verifying quantities, pricing, terms, and dates with the supplier and reconciling every confirmation against what we ordered
Accountable for every purchase order in Cin7 and the accuracy of the PO record as the single source of truth on status, quantity, and dates, current daily rather than weekly
Supplier and Co-Manufacturer Readiness
Track lead times, ready dates, ship dates, and production commitments across the network, and hold partners to them
Flag supply delays and readiness gaps to planning early, with a recommendation rather than only a warning
Expedite, resequence, split, or cut at-risk orders to protect the plan, and state plainly what each option costs
Build and run an on-time, in-full scorecard so partner performance is measured rather than remembered
Systems, Reporting, and Cross-Functional Work
Own purchasing transactions in Cin7: PO records, receipts, lead times, and supplier data
Work with Fulfillment and Logistics on inbound freight timing, so a confirmed ready date becomes a landed receipt
Work with Finance on purchase timing, landed cost, and the cash impact of the buy plan
Partner with Procurement on the supplier relationships, pricing, and sourcing decisions sitting behind the orders you place
Work with Product Development and Quality on new item timelines and first production runs
Work with Sales and Marketing on channel timing and launch dates across wholesale, e-commerce, Amazon, direct independent, and club
REQUIREMENTS
3 to 5 years in supply planning, production planning, buying, or procurement in CPG, with food and beverage a plus
Has personally placed and chased purchase orders end to end, from the buy quantity decision through receipt, rather than only reporting on them
Hands-on ERP experience with purchasing transactions (Cin7 strongly preferred, NetSuite or similar acceptable), including how POs, receipts, and BOMs actually behave in the system
Strong planning math: coverage, days of supply, safety stock, minimum order quantity, and lot sizing, built in Excel or Google Sheets without help
Comfortable with international suppliers, multi-week ocean lead times, and the coordination a global supply base demands
Able to carry a high volume of order-level detail across dozens of open POs without losing any of it
Written communication that holds up with an external partner: clear, specific, warm, and firm on dates
Detail-obsessed, organized, and energized by building cleaner systems in a fast-moving, high-growth environment
Tools
Cin7 (ERP), WMS, SPS Commerce (EDI), QuickBooks, Google Sheets, Notion, FoodLogiQ
Nice to have
Seafood or another supply chain with seasonality and biological constraints
Co-manufacturer or contract packing environment
EDI (SPS Commerce), WMS, or QuickBooks exposure
Experience with S&OP, inventory reconciliation, and supplier scorecarding
A habit of automating anything you have had to do manually more than twice
