A supply chain recruitment desk for St Andrews

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

Across Tayside & Fife, supply chain roles often sit alongside operations at sites such as the A9 and A90 corridors and the Angus food-processing belt. We search for planners who know that environment.

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

Your brief

Getting the brief right

Contract cover suits a short project. A permanent hire is the answer when the business needs someone to own the plan.

When a planning role is proving hard to fill, we work out whether the pay, the systems or the scope is the obstacle. Then we tell you.

A strong supply chain brief covers:

  • The sector and the products planned
  • Forecast accuracy and service targets
  • Salary, bonus and benefits
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
