Supply Chain Recruitment in Hove

Permanent supply chain and planning recruitment across the South East.

South East

Hove supply chain recruitment

Supply chain roles are judged on forecast accuracy, service levels and stock. We recruit people who move all three.

Supply chain vacancies across the South East come from grocery and retail DCs, Channel-port and customs operations, FMCG supply chains and national 3PLs. Each needs planners who can balance service against cost.

Building a planning team from scratch? We can recruit the analysts and the manager together so the cycle runs from month one.

Employers supplied from sites such as the M25 and M3 corridors, the south-coast ports and the distribution parks around Gatwick compete for the same experienced planners, which pushes salaries up.

How it works

Three stages to a hire

The search

We approach analysts and planners directly, including the ones who are not looking.

The shortlist

A short list with notes on each candidate's sector, systems and results.

References that matter

We ask referees about the planner's results and influence, not just dates.

Your brief

Details that sharpen the search

A planner who knows last year's forecast mistakes is far less likely to repeat them.

Senior planning roles often carry long notice periods, so we plan the timeline from the first call.

A strong supply chain brief covers:

  • The sector and the products planned
  • The planning cycle and who attends S&OP
  • Inventory value and stock targets
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
