Lead global supply chain improvement and logistics projects.
Produce weekly management reports on supply risks, allocation status and recovery actions.
Represent the business in global allocation meetings and crisis management forums.
Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance global supply chain resilience.
Minimise production disruption across the global manufacturing network.
Reduce customer delivery delays through effective material allocation and crisis management.
Improve supplier performance and continuity of supply.
Control expedited freight costs while maintaining service levels.

Key Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in Supply Chain, Business, Engineering, or a related discipline.
3-5 years' experience in Supply Chain, Logistics or Materials Planning within manufacturing, automotive or electronics.
Experience managing suppliers and improving logistics processes in a global environment.
Strong analytical, negotiation and stakeholder management skills.
Advanced Excel skills; SAP experience preferred.
Fluent English with excellent communication skills.
Willingness to travel as and when needed.

The Package:

£45,000 - £50,000 per annum depending on experience.
6 month FTC, with potential 3 month rolling extensions.
Hybrid working arrangement, 2-3 days in the office, WFH the other days.
