Demand and supply planners in Ambleside

Permanent supply chain hires should leave the plan better than they found it.

Across Cumbria, supply chain roles often sit alongside operations at sites such as the Kingmoor Park estates at Carlisle and the A69 corridor. We search for planners who know that environment.

A supply chain offer competes with retailers, manufacturers and consultancies. We help set salary and bonus so it lands first time.

Supply chain demand across Cumbria follows chilled food distribution, defence and marine manufacturing, energy supply chains and Anglo-Scottish trunking operators.

Systems experience

We confirm which planning and ERP systems candidates use, so there is no hidden learning curve.

How it works

How we find the planner

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.

Settling in

We stay in touch through the first planning cycles and help resolve anything that comes up.

Your brief

Setting up the search

Contract cover suits a short project. A permanent hire is the answer when the business needs someone to own the plan.

A realistic job description helps retention. We describe the systems and the data as they are, not as they will be.

A strong supply chain brief covers:

  • The sector and the products planned
  • The planning cycle and who attends S&OP
  • The ERP and planning systems in use
  • Forecast accuracy and service targets
