The Role
At Full Circle, we've built our reputation on doing what we say we'll do, supporting each other when it matters and delivering for our customers. As we continue to grow across the UK and Europe, the importance of having the right supply chain foundations in place has never been greater.
We're looking for an experienced International Supply Chain Manager to help shape the next stage of our supply chain operation. Reporting to the Commercial Director, this role will have end-to-end responsibility for procurement, inventory management, logistics and warehousing across our international business. This is a role for someone who enjoys creating structure, improving performance and building capability in a growing business.
