Job Description

Job Description:

THE CONTEXT & ENVIRONMENT

In a rapidly changing world, an agile supply chain (SC) is a critical differentiator for our customers and consumers. At Mars, we are continuously evolving our supply chain to be more end-to-end connected, transparent, responsive, and digitally enabled. We believe that a human-centric, digitally empowered planning community is essential to unlocking this vision and serving as the foundation for one seamless, end-to-end SC organization.

The Mars Wrigley Europe Supply Chain Center of Excellence (CoE) sits at the very heart of this transformation. As a digital catalyst, our mission is to accelerate and elevate digital planning capabilities while fostering a modern, data-driven way of working across our European planning teams.

Within the CoE, the Insights & Analytics (I&A) team addresses strategic business challenges and opportunities by strengthening the organization's decision-making power. We are a collaborative team of business analysts, data analysts, and data scientists partnering to clarify business challenges, build digital prototypes, and deliver scalable analytics solutions.

THE ROLE

As a Front-End Developer / Business Analyst, you will directly collaborate with the planning organization/Business stakeholders, development teams to design and build intuitive digital tools that drive impactful decision-making. You will participate in high-impact initiatives across the end-to-end planning domain, pairing exceptional UI/UX design with valuable business insights.

All projects directly support optimizing Customer Service, Supply Chain Costs, and Working Capital (Inventory). In this dual-capability role, you will not only build front-end applications but also bridge the gap between advanced analytics and user-friendly digital solutions that drive continuous operational improvement.

WHAT WILL BE YOUR KEY RESPONSIBILITIES?

  • Develop & Maintain Analytics Solutions: Build, optimize, and maintain responsive front-end applications and interactive Power BI dashboards.
  • Lead UI/UX & Design Thinking: Facilitate design sessions, gather business requirements, and create intuitive wireframes, mockups, and prototypes.
  • Collaborate & Deliver via Agile: Partner closely with Data Scientists, Data Engineers, and Business Analysts, while directing external delivery partners within an Agile/Scrum framework.
  • Continuous Improvement: Translate complex planning workflows into automated, trusted, and user-centric digital products.

QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS

Need to Have

  • Higher education and 3-5yr relevant experience
  • Business Analysis & Requirements Gathering: Proven ability to translate complex supply chain challenges into clear technical requirements, user stories, and interactive wireframes.
  • Front-End Delivery & Data Visualization: Strong expertise in Power BI/fabric to model data and design actionable dashboards. Hands-on development experience with core web technologies (React, JavaScript) to build responsive user applications.
  • Domain Knowledge: Familiarity with Supply Chain planning concepts (Demand/Supply planning, Inventory optimization, S&OP).

Nice to Have

  • UI/UX Design & Prototyping Tools: Working background with Figma, Adobe XD, or similar tools for rapid prototyping and usability testing.
  • Agile & DevOps Practices: Experience with Azure DevOps, Git version control, and CI/CD deployment pipelines within a Scrum environment.
  • Passionate for Change: Drive for Change management and embedding digital solutions into Processes
  • System Knowledge: Experience with Kinaxis (or related planning systems), SAP and Databrick

What can you expect from Mars? Work with diverse and talented Associates, all guided by the Five Principles. Join a purpose driven company, where we’re striving to build the world we want tomorrow, today. A strong focus on learning and development support from day one, including access to our in-house Mars University. An industry competitive salary and benefits package, including company bonus.
