South East

A supply chain recruitment desk for Basingstoke

Good supply chain people make the rest of the operation calmer. That is what we recruit for.

Supply chain vacancies across the South East come from retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs. Each needs planners who can balance service against cost.

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

Supply chain roles across the South East support operations at sites such as the M25 and M3 corridors, the south-coast ports and the distribution parks around Gatwick.

Getting the brief right

A permanent planner learns your products, your customers and your seasonality. That knowledge improves every forecast.

Many supply chain managers started as analysts. We recruit for every step of that career.

A strong supply chain brief covers:
