Supply Chain Recruitment in Aberdare

From analysts to heads of supply chain, we find permanent people in Aberdare who can model the numbers and change the operation.

Wales

Demand and supply planners in Aberdare

The best planners are rarely on job boards. They are busy running an S&OP cycle somewhere else.

Goods across Wales move through the M4 and A55 North Wales Expressway, Cardiff Airport and the ports at Cardiff, Newport, Swansea and Holyhead. Planners who understand that network plan with fewer surprises.

A planner who leaves after a few months takes the model, the history and the relationships with them.

Supply chain roles across Wales support operations at sites such as the South Wales M4 distribution belt, the ABP ports and the Deeside Industrial Park.

How it works

How we find the planner

The search

Technical screen

Forecasting method, systems, data skills and right to work checked before the first interview.

References that matter

We ask referees about the planner's results and influence, not just dates.

Your brief

Setting up the search

An empty planning seat costs more than the advert: excess stock, missed sales and firefighting.

Senior planning roles often carry long notice periods, so we plan the timeline from the first call.

A strong supply chain brief covers:

  • The sector and the products planned
  • Forecast accuracy and service targets
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
