Supply Chain Manager
We're recruiting for an experienced Supply Chain Manager to join a fast-paced FMCG manufacturing site in the North East.
This is a hands-on leadership role where you'll take full ownership of planning, procurement, warehousing and logistics. You'll lead a small team (4-8 people) and be responsible for keeping materials flowing, stock accurate, suppliers performing, and operations running smoothly.
This isn't a corporate "sit behind a desk" job. It's real operational leadership in a busy factory environment. You'll work closely with Production, Sales and Finance to align demand, manage S&OP, control costs and improve performance across the board.
What you'll be doing:
Leading planning, purchasing, warehousing and logistics
Driving forecast accuracy and stock control
Managing suppliers and negotiating contracts
Overseeing 3PL and transport performance
Improving systems, processes and KPIs
Playing a key role in cost control and continuous improvement
What we're looking for:
Proven Supply Chain leadership experience in FMCG or manufacturing
Strong background across planning, procurement and logistics
Confident managing suppliers and driving performance
Commercially aware and comfortable working at pace
ERP/MRP experience
What's on offer:
£55-65k salary
Bonus scheme
24 days holiday + birthday off
Early finish on Fridays
Health plan, life assurance, pension
Real progression opportunities
If you're someone who enjoys improving processes, leading teams and making a real impact in a fast-moving environment, this could be the one.
