Supply Chain Recruitment in Horwich

Permanent supply chain and planning recruitment across the North West.

North West

A supply chain recruitment desk for Horwich

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

Across the North West, supply chain roles often sit alongside operations at sites such as Trafford Park — one of Europe's largest industrial estates — Omega Warrington and the Port of Liverpool. We search for planners who know that environment.

When the Horwich market is thin for planning talent, we look further along the commute and consider hybrid patterns before we compromise on skill.

Across the North West, planners and analysts are hired by retail and grocery DCs, national 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and port and container logistics.
