Supply chain recruitment for Ashington employers who need planning that holds up when demand moves.
Permanent supply chain hires should leave the plan better than they found it.
Across the North East, supply chain roles often sit alongside operations at sites such as the Port of Tyne and the Nissan and Washington supply-chain parks. We search for planners who know that environment.
Demand planning, supply planning, inventory and S&OP need different strengths. We recruit each role differently.
The strongest supply chain candidates across the North East are usually already planning for businesses such as automotive and chemicals supply chains, port and bulk logistics, retail distribution and regional 3PLs.
Permanent supply chain roles matched to sector, systems and seniority.
Retail, FMCG, manufacturing and e-commerce plan differently. We match planners to the kind of demand they have handled.
Office days, travel to sites and remote working are agreed up front, so the candidate knows the job they are taking.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months, while a new planner learns your data.
Indicative permanent salaries in Ashington run from around £32k for analysts up to £80k+ for heads of supply chain.
A clear offer shortens the search. We give you a current read on pay for the role before it goes live. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We approach analysts and planners directly, including the ones who are not looking.
We arrange interviews and any case study, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We stay in touch through the first planning cycles and help resolve anything that comes up.
An empty planning seat costs more than the advert: excess stock, missed sales and firefighting.
A realistic job description helps retention. We describe the systems and the data as they are, not as they will be.
