Supply planner resume template
Short answer
Henrietta suits a supply planner: a conventional single-column layout that prints your jobs right after a short summary, then education and a compact skills grid. The fictional sample plans replenishment for a medical device company's distribution network, reset safety stock by item and cut inventory while fill rate stayed high. Show stock and service together, and use your own numbers.

Why Henrietta suits a supply planner resume
Henrietta prints a summary, then Work Experience, then Education and a three-column skills grid in black and grey. Supply planning hiring managers read for inventory and service results first, and the layout puts the jobs at the top without decoration.
Second choice: FAANGPath. FAANGPath prints skills before jobs, a better fit if the posting screens on a specific planning system.
What goes in each section, in Henrietta's order
Henrietta prints its sections in a fixed order, the same in the PDF and the Word file. Here is that order for this sample, and what to put in each section.
- Professional Summary. The network you plan (plants, warehouses, suppliers), item count, the system, and one stock or service result.
- Work Experience. Bullets with fill rate or on-time supply, inventory days or value, expedites avoided, and supplier lead time work.
- Education. Degree with the year, placed right after the jobs in this template.
- Skills. Replenishment, safety stock, MRP, capacity checks, then tools. The grid has no labels, so lead with the planning skills.

How to make the sample yours
Report inventory and service together
Inventory days or value, and fill rate or backorders. A reduction in stock with a drop in service is not a result.
Show how you set safety stock
By item class, by lead time variability, by service target. One sentence on the method shows you understand the math behind the plan.
Mention supplier work
Lead times you negotiated, suppliers you moved to scheduled releases, shortages you prevented. Planning often depends on suppliers.
Count expedites
Expedited shipments and their cost fall when planning improves, and finance notices.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between demand and supply planner resumes?
Demand planners show forecast accuracy and consensus work. Supply planners show inventory, service, supplier and capacity results. Lead with the side the posting names.
Which numbers should a supply planner include?
Item count, suppliers, inventory days or value, fill rate or backorders, and expedites. Pick the ones your company tracked.
Should I list MRP even if it is part of the ERP?
Yes. Name the system and say you ran MRP, released orders or managed exceptions in it.
How long should a supply planner resume be?
One page is enough for most planners. Keep older roles to two or three lines and spend the space on the network you plan now and the stock and service results you delivered there.
How do I move from materials planner to supply planner?
Show planning across several sites or a network, safety stock decisions and S&OP inputs, and put them first in your current job.
Will applicant tracking systems read this Henrietta PDF?
The sample PDF read back with its contact details, all 4 section headings and all 7 bullets intact in three open-source text extractors (pdf.js, pdftotext and pypdf). Commercial systems such as Workday, Greenhouse or Taleo were not tested, and each employer configures its own.
