We are the people who give possibilities purpose

BD is one of the largest global medical technology companies in the world. Advancing the world of health™ is our Purpose, and it’s no small feat. It takes the imagination and passion of all of us—from design and engineering to the manufacturing and marketing of our billions of MedTech products per year—to look at the impossible and find transformative solutions that turn dreams into possibilities.

Job Description

At BD, possibility isn’t an idea. It’s what we do. We are the Makers of Possible.

AsSenior Supply Chain Business Partner, you’ll lead a team of demand planners and inventory coordinators while working closely with commercial and operational stakeholders to balance supply and demand across a defined portfolio.

Based in Sydney and reporting to the Supply Chain Planning Manager, this is a highly visible role where you’ll combine people leadership, planning expertise and strong stakeholder management to deliver reliable supply outcomes and drive performance across the business.

You’ll play a key role in leading S&OP processes, improving forecast accuracy and ensuring inventory is optimised to meet customer demand across Australia and New Zealand.

Your Day‑to‑Day

You will lead both the team and planning processes, ensuring supply chain outcomes are delivered effectively.

You will:

• Lead and develop a team of planners and coordinators, driving performance, accountability and capability uplift

• Partner with Marketing and Commercial teams to align demand forecasts with business activity

• Lead monthly demand consensus and S&OP meetings, managing variances, risks and opportunities

• Analyse demand trends and drivers to improve forecast accuracy and planning outcomes

• Work closely with regional supply teams and global stakeholders to ensure alignment on supply plans

• Monitor inventory levels, safety stock and forward coverage to ensure optimal performance

• Manage backorders and communicate impacts clearly across Customer Service and Sales teams

• Optimise inventory, including managing excess and obsolete stock and improvement plans

• Provide regular reporting on key supply chain metrics (forecast accuracy, DIO, OTIF, backorders)

• Collaborate across logistics, distribution and customer service to ensure execution of plans

This is a role where you’ll be expected to lead from the front - both in how the team operates and how you engage stakeholders.

About You

You’re a confident leader who knows how to get the best out of your team while also building strong relationships across the business.

You’ll bring:

• Proven experience in supply chain planning (demand and/or supply planning)

• Previous people leadership experience, ideally within planning

• Strong experience leading or participating in S&OP processes

• High levels of data analysis capability and ability to interpret planning metrics

• Confidence partnering with and influencing stakeholders across commercial and operational teams

• The ability to challenge constructively and navigate complex or competing priorities

• Strong organisational and communication skills

• A proactive, solutions‑focused mindset

Experience within healthcare or regulated environments, and exposure to SAP/JDE systems is highly regarded but not essential.
