Permanent supply chain and planning recruitment across Tyne & Wear.
A planner who can build the model but cannot persuade the business rarely changes much. We test for both.
Newcastle upon Tyne anchors the North East, with the Port of Tyne and the region's automotive supply chain shaping its logistics labour market. Across Tyne & Wear, planning teams support operations at sites such as the Port of Tyne, the A19 automotive corridor and the Team Valley trading estate.
Building a planning team from scratch? We can recruit the analysts and the manager together so the cycle runs from month one.
Across Tyne & Wear, planners and analysts are hired by automotive and chemicals supply chains, port and bulk logistics, retail distribution and regional 3PLs.
Planning, inventory, analytics and S&OP roles.
Retail, FMCG, manufacturing and e-commerce plan differently. We match planners to the kind of demand they have handled.
Good planners change decisions. We ask for examples of decisions they changed and what it took.
A short list with notes on sector, systems and the results each candidate delivered.
Indicative permanent salaries in Newcastle upon Tyne run from around £32k for analysts up to £80k+ for heads of supply chain.
We benchmark against live offers for similar planning roles, not historic salary data. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Forecasting method, systems, data skills and right to work checked before the first interview.
We ask referees about the planner's results and influence, not just dates.
We help settle salary, hybrid terms and start date so the offer is accepted first time.
A permanent planner learns your products, your customers and your seasonality. That knowledge improves every forecast.
A realistic job description helps retention. We describe the systems and the data as they are, not as they will be.
