There aren’t many opportunities that offer a clear pathway into senior supply chain leadership.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Supply Chain Manager to take ownership of the Warehouse and Customer Service functions, with a clear progression plan to take on Planning and Logistics, ultimately succeeding the Head of Supply Chain.

With no natural internal successor, you will work closely as the right-hand person to the Head of Supply Chain, gaining exposure, mentorship, and development to position you as a future leader within the business.

This is a fast-paced, high-impact role within the food manufacturing industry, with several exciting projects on the horizon. A recent system implementation has already taken place, with further automation planned across manufacturing and warehousing - offering the opportunity to play a key role in driving these initiatives.

The role will evolve in stages. Initially, your focus will be on:

• Developing and strengthening the warehouse team, building autonomy within key individuals, and driving cross-training, while identifying and implementing process improvements.
• Leading the customer service function, supporting the team in transitioning to a more modern, system-driven way of working. The business operates on SAP, and there is a strong focus on improving automation and reducing manual input.

As you establish stability and deliver results in these areas, you will gradually take on broader responsibility across the full supply chain, including planning and logistics.

What we’re looking for:

• A driven and ambitious individual looking to progress into senior leadership—not someone seeking to remain at the same level.
• A solid background in supply chain management, particularly across warehousing and customer service. Exposure to planning would be highly advantageous.
• Experience with SAP is a strong plus.
• Strong commercial awareness, with the ability to influence and manage senior internal stakeholders.
