We recruit demand planners, supply planners and S&OP leads for Wigan and the North West, screened on the forecasts and plans they have owned.
Supply chain roles are judged on forecast accuracy, service levels and stock. We recruit people who move all three.
Supply chain employers across the North West include retail and grocery DCs, national 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and port and container logistics. Each plans differently, so we recruit to the planning cycle rather than the job title.
Demand planning, supply planning, inventory and S&OP need different strengths. We recruit each role differently.
Supply chain roles across the North West support operations at sites such as the M6/M62 distribution parks, Trafford Park and the Liverpool2 container terminal.
From junior analysts to supply chain directors.
We ask candidates what happened to forecast accuracy, stock and service on their watch before we talk about their notice period.
Retail, FMCG, manufacturing and e-commerce plan differently. We match planners to the kind of demand they have handled.
For a new planning function we can recruit the manager and the analysts together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Wigan run from around £32k for analysts up to £80k+ for heads of supply chain.
Salary is only part of the offer. Candidates compare bonus, hybrid working, pension and the scope of the role. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
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.
We stay in touch through the first planning cycles and help resolve anything that comes up.
An empty planning seat costs more than the advert: excess stock, missed sales and firefighting.
Many supply chain managers started as analysts. We recruit for every step of that career.
