You will support and improve the full supply chain process from planning and materials through to data accuracy, supplier management and operational flow.

• Support planning, materials control and MRP accuracy

• Work closely with production, engineering, commercial and quality teams

• Identify risks, shortages and capacity constraints

• Improve planning processes and data accuracy

• Manage supplier communication and material flow

• Prepare to step into a senior leadership role in the future

What you need

• Experience in planning, materials or supply chain within manufacturing

• Strong understanding of MRP and production flow

• Confident working with data, forecasting and ERP systems

• A calm, organised approach when priorities move

• A proactive mindset and willingness to challenge inefficient processes

What you will get

• A structured progression route to Supply Chain Manager

• Support and mentoring from an experienced leader

• A role where you can modernise processes and make a noticeable impact

• Long-term stability and a business that values continuous improvement
