Supply Chain Recruitment in Basildon

Permanent supply chain and planning recruitment across the East of England.

East of England

Basildon supply chain recruitment

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

Supply chain employers across the East of England include container and forwarding operators, agri-food and cold-chain distribution, e-commerce fulfilment and regional 3PLs. Each plans differently, so we recruit to the planning cycle rather than the job title.

We ask candidates which planning and ERP systems they have used, how they forecast and what they did when the forecast was wrong.

Employers supplied from sites such as Felixstowe — the UK's largest container port — the A14 freight corridor and the parks along the M11 and A1(M) compete for the same experienced planners, which pushes salaries up.
