Senior Demand Planner (REMOTE)

Your Opportunity at ARC’TERYX As a Senior Demand Planner, you lead and shape how demand planning drives business performance — turning complex data and cross-functional input into the clear, aligned forecast leadership relies on to make strategic decisions. You set the standard for how the team forecasts — building more robust processes, advancing our forecasting methodologies, and developing other planners to raise the capability of the function. You thrive in ambiguity, balance competing priorities, and influence senior cross-functional partners to align on new approaches and challenge entrenched assumptions. You own the end-to-end demand plan, lead the IBP forums, and shape how our tools, models, and planning frameworks evolve over time. Your impact shows up in measurably better forecast accuracy, more proactive decision-making, and the successful execution of high-stakes initiatives such as new product launches and seasonal strategies.
This role is based out of our North Vancouver office and is open to hybrid remote work. Our Demand Planning team plays a pivotal role in connecting the business strategy to the realities of customer demand. We translate market signals, historical data, and cross-functional insights into a clear, forward-looking demand forecast that guides decision making across our organization. If you were in the Senior Demand Planner role now, here are some of the core activities you would be doing:
Setting and owning forecast accuracy targets and driving their continuous improvement
Defining the statistical forecasting approach and building the baseline models the team relies on
Leading the demand plan through the monthly Integrated Business Planning (IBP) cycle and driving consensus across stakeholders
Shaping the volume outlook that drives Supply Planning’s capacity and build decisions
Coaching and developing other planners, setting the standard for best practice across the team
Building demand curves and launch models for new products using analogs and market insight
Leading in-season performance management and driving corrective action
Leading scenario planning and risk management, anticipating demand risks and supply constraints before they surface
Influencing and aligning cross-functional partners — Merchandising, Supply Planning, Inventory Planning, Allocations, FP&A, and eCommerce to deliver results
Driving process improvement through identifying opportunities and learnings for demand planning improvement projects and initiatives as they arise
Working closely with other supply chain and product teams on inventory strategies
