Supply Chain Recruitment in Chichester

We recruit demand planners, supply planners and S&OP leads for Chichester and the South East, screened on the forecasts and plans they have owned.

South East

A supply chain recruitment desk for Chichester

We look for people who have planned in your sector: retail, FMCG, manufacturing or e-commerce.

Businesses supplied through sites such as the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow depend on forecasts that hold up. We match planners to that pressure.

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

Supply chain demand across the South East follows retail and grocery distribution, port and Channel logistics, aerospace and FMCG supply chains and regional 3PLs.

A strong supply chain brief covers:

  • The planning cycle and who attends S&OP
  • The ERP and planning systems in use
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
