About the role

As a Supply Chain Planning Transformation Manager, you will work with Bluecrux’ Anaplan practice to lead planning transformation projects for German-speaking clients. You will bring structure to complex delivery environments, guide project teams and help business and technology stakeholders make clear decisions.

Your focus will be on project delivery: translating business objectives into achievable plans, managing execution and keeping teams aligned from mobilisation through implementation and adoption.

What you’ll do

  • Lead planning transformation projects. Take responsibility for full projects or major workstreams within larger programmes, working with a Bluecrux engagement lead. Define scope, deliverables, milestones and responsibilities, and keep delivery focused on the client’s objectives.

  • Manage project performance. Monitor progress across scope, quality, budget and timelines. Anticipate risks, manage dependencies and address issues before they disrupt delivery.

  • Guide clients through decisions. Facilitate workshops, project governance meetings and steering committees in German and English. Communicate progress clearly, make trade-offs visible and secure alignment on priorities and next steps.

  • Connect business and technology teams. Work with planning specialists, solution architects and implementation teams to translate business needs into coordinated delivery plans.

  • Lead and support the project team. Coordinate activities across Bluecrux, client teams and implementation partners. Set clear expectations, delegate effectively and help team members resolve delivery challenges.

  • Support adoption and lasting results. Build change management, business readiness and knowledge transfer into the project approach so that new planning processes and solutions become part of everyday operations.
