SAP IBP Supply Chain Planning Consultant – S&OP/S&OE
Westernacher Consulting is hiring a SAP IBP Supply Chain Planning Consultant focused on S&OP and S&OE end-user experience in North Carolina, with relocation to Charlotte expected.
The role is centered on operational planning execution within weekly and monthly planning cycles. Responsibilities include maintaining demand, supply and short-term response plans, reviewing planning alerts, exceptions and KPIs, supporting S&OE and S&OP meetings, and helping business stakeholders make decisions from reliable planning data.
The profile targets candidates with 2–4 years of operational supply chain planning experience, hands-on S&OP or S&OE exposure, and end-user or super-user experience in SAP IBP across demand, supply or similar planning areas. Consumer goods experience is listed as a strong plus.
This job is a useful signal for Supply Chain Planning because it focuses less on system implementation alone and more on the operational end-user layer of SAP IBP. The role sits where planning tools, recurring routines and business decisions meet.
For planning leaders, the interesting point is governance of the weekly and monthly decision cycle: which alerts matter, which KPIs trigger escalation, who owns the short-term response plan, and how planning data becomes trusted enough to support S&OE and S&OP decisions consistently.
