Supply chain recruitment for Middlesbrough employers who need planning that holds up when demand moves.
The best planners are rarely on job boards. They are busy running an S&OP cycle somewhere else.
Businesses supplied through sites such as Teesport and the Teesside Freeport estates depend on forecasts that hold up. We match planners to that pressure.
When the Middlesbrough market is thin for planning talent, we look further along the commute and consider hybrid patterns before we compromise on skill.
The strongest supply chain candidates across the Tees Valley are usually already planning for businesses such as chemicals and process industries, port and container logistics, steel and heavy manufacturing and rail-linked 3PLs.
The people who forecast demand and the people who plan supply.
We confirm which planning and ERP systems candidates use, so there is no hidden learning curve.
Office days, travel to sites and remote working are agreed up front, so the candidate knows the job they are taking.
For a new planning function we can recruit the manager and the analysts together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Middlesbrough run from around £32k for analysts up to £80k+ for heads of supply chain.
If the offer looks light against the planning market, you hear it from us before any interviews. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Sector, systems, planning cycle and the decision the new hire needs to improve.
Forecasting method, systems, data skills and right to work checked before the first interview.
We help settle salary, hybrid terms and start date so the offer is accepted first time.
A planner who knows last year's forecast mistakes is far less likely to repeat them.
Planners who leave early often cite poor data, no influence or a manager who ignores the plan. We raise all three first.
