Supply Chain Recruitment in Slough

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

South East

Slough supply chain recruitment

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

Slough sits in the South East's busy distribution belt, where the M25 corridor and the south-coast ports keep demand for logistics talent high. Across the South East, planning teams support operations at sites such as the Solent ports and the M27 corridor estates.

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 grocery and retail DCs, Channel-port and customs operations, FMCG supply chains and national 3PLs.

How we work with Slough businesses

A shortlist of people who can plan and persuade

Matched to your sector

Retail, FMCG, manufacturing and e-commerce plan differently. We match planners to the kind of demand they have handled.

Systems experience

We confirm which planning and ERP systems candidates use, so there is no hidden learning curve.

Influence tested

Good planners change decisions. We ask for examples of decisions they changed and what it took.

Pay benchmarks

What supply chain professionals earn in Slough

Indicative permanent salaries in Slough run from around £32k for analysts up to £80k+ for heads of supply chain.

Heads of supply chain earn well above planners. FMCG and retail often pay more than smaller manufacturers. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

How it works

Three stages to a hire

Technical screen

Forecasting method, systems, data skills and right to work checked before the first interview.

References that matter

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

Settling in

We stay in touch through the first planning cycles and help resolve anything that comes up.

Your brief

Details that sharpen the search

An empty planning seat costs more than the advert: excess stock, missed sales and firefighting.

We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.

A strong supply chain brief covers:

  • The planning cycle and who attends S&OP
  • Forecast accuracy and service targets
  • Office, site and hybrid working pattern
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
