Our Global Supply Planning team is an important part of Coty’s business.

This is achieved by delivering the best balance of service, inventory, cost and sustainability, that delivers the Company’s revenue and cashflow objectives.

The RDM Planner Co-op supports Regional Delivery Management by reviewing customer orders, inventory availability, back-in-stock dates, allocation priorities, and routing requirements.

• Analyze order, inventory, shortage, and back-in-stock data to determine whether orders should be allocated, held, cut, or rescheduled.
• Apply established allocation priorities, customer requirements, and routing rules consistently.
• Monitor orders approaching required allocation and ship dates, identify exceptions, and escalate risks promptly.
• Communicate allocation decisions, shortages, date issues, and recommended actions to Customer Service, Distribution Center, and Planning partners.
• Maintain accurate system data and complete daily allocation activities within established timelines.
• Support month-end and peak-volume execution, including flexible hours when business needs require.
• Follow standard work and contribute practical ideas that improve allocation accuracy, service, and process efficiency.
