We are seeking someone who wants to play a key role in our supply chain within the commercial department!
About the Role:
As a Supply Chain Planner / Requisitioner at SMD, you will ensure that the right products are in the right place at the right time. You will work with planning, purchasing, delivery monitoring, and inventory management in close collaboration with both internal and external parties. At SMD, you'll become part of a dedicated team where your contribution makes a difference every day. You will work with clients in the tobacco industry, build long-term relationships, and be a crucial component in a company where product flow is at the center. We offer a work environment that encourages improvements and provides opportunities for you to influence and grow.
You have an important role in optimizing flows, minimizing costs, and contributing to efficient and sustainable logistics work. The role requires you to be self-driven and solution-oriented – you are the one who sees what needs to be done, acts correctly, and has the ability to stay one step ahead in both planning and execution. You work proactively to identify improvement opportunities in processes and flows.
You drive your own work forward towards set goals and have daily contacts where you coordinate ongoing operations and develop relationships with clients. Our clients are primarily represented in Sweden but often with international connections. Examples of work tasks:
• Plan and execute purchases for our clients
• Ensure timely deliveries and manage potential deviations
• Monitor and analyze inventory status, update forecasts, and reduce surplus
• Coordinate with clients regarding orders and incoming deliveries
• Perform invoicing and invoice matching in systems
• Maintain price lists, master data, and business systems
• Conduct business analyses and develop improvement proposals for our processes
• Central contact point for both internal departments and external clients – both operationally and strategically
Your Profile:
We are looking for someone who is structured, responsible, and has a natural ability to see the big picture. You are a person who takes great responsibility and thrives in a role where you can be proactive, drive issues forward, and solve problems before they arise. With strong personal drive and a desire to stay ahead, you ensure that work flows smoothly and that we always deliver with quality – both internally and to clients.
We believe you have:
• Experience from a similar role in logistics, purchasing, or supply chain (approx. 2-3 years is meritorious)
• Good knowledge of the Office package, especially Excel - which you use as a tool in your analysis and planning
• Experience with business and logistics systems
• Good communication skills in Swedish and English
• High school education (post-secondary education is meritorious)
Personal qualities we value:
• Solution-oriented and detail-oriented
• Relationship-building and service-minded
• Change-friendly and improvement-driven
• Team player who drives development forward
We seek someone who has worked in a similar operational role and independent projects where you have many contacts with customers and/or suppliers. You are not just part of the flow – you ensure its improvement. You are good at working independently and enjoy solving problems to move forward. You are a relationship-building and positive person who sees opportunities and finds it easy to collaborate with others. In your work, you are responsible and very careful with details, ensuring high quality in processes and your own work. You have a good ability to handle sensitive business information.
In the role of Supply Chain Planner / Requisitioner at SMD Logistics, you will also use your ability to see the big picture and willingness to contribute to efficiency improvements, as we continuously work to develop the department's work. You are an excellent coordinator with extensive experience working in MS Office and business systems, capable of handling multiple cases simultaneously.
Experience with our M3 business system is meritorious but not a requirement. You are fluent in Swedish and English, both verbally and in writing.
As a Supply Chain Planner / Requisitioner with a focus on the overall supply chain, you will be part of the Assortment & Requisition department and report to the Head of Assortment & Requisition.
