Help us boldly shape retail in Canada
Canadian Tire Corporation, Limited (“CTC”) is one of Canada’s most admired and trusted companies. With world-class Owned Brands and exciting market-leading merchandising strategies, we are continually innovating with purpose: to be there for Canadians from coast-to-coast. We are relentlessly focused on innovating at every level of our business, investing in new technologies and products, and doubling down on the best talent to drive the company forward. It is an especially exciting time to join Canadian Tire and its group of companies.
The Operations Planning Center (OPC) is CTC’s Supply Chain planning hub. The OPC works with our integrated partners – CTC Associate Stores, Suppliers, Forecasting and Replenishment, Execution Teams (DCs, Trans), Third Party Providers and Carriers to plan efficient product flow across our network.
Capacity and Production Planning’s vision is to be recognized leaders in the planning of supply chain operations, to facilitate growth, reliability and cost effectiveness.
The Supply Chain Planning Analyst will:
Provide awareness, context and guidance to internal and external supply chain partners with regards to capacity objectives, requirements and events that span annual, seasonal and weekly time horizons.
Create capacity and production plans, and coordinate their execution with the operational teams to balance the use of supply chain assets with the flow of goods to positively impact service levels and the financial bottom line.
Proactively apply continuous improvement methodologies to internal processes as well as cross functional processes and services to improve supply chain productivity, reduce costs, and foster strong partnerships.
At Canadian Tire we work flexibility embracing ‘Hybrid’ whereby individuals utilize a combination of working at a CTC campus and or virtually in service of outcomes. Determined by managers, decisions around work location will be made based on business and team needs and grounded in a desire to support individual well-being and personal needs. Our goal is to empower teams and individuals to make the right decisions for them, and we expect that to look different for everyone.
