From analysts to heads of supply chain, we find permanent people in Yeovil who can model the numbers and change the operation.
The best planners are rarely on job boards. They are busy running an S&OP cycle somewhere else.
Yeovil draws on the South West's distribution and port-logistics base, concentrated around the M5 corridor. We recruit the analysts and planners who keep those supply chains balanced.
We ask candidates which planning and ERP systems they have used, how they forecast and what they did when the forecast was wrong.
The strongest supply chain candidates across the South West are usually already planning for businesses such as port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs.
Permanent supply chain roles, from analysts to heads of supply chain.
We ask candidates what happened to forecast accuracy, stock and service on their watch before we talk about their notice period.
Good planners change decisions. We ask for examples of decisions they changed and what it took.
For a new planning function we can recruit the manager and the analysts together.
Indicative permanent salaries in Yeovil 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.
We approach analysts and planners directly, including the ones who are not looking.
Forecasting method, systems, data skills and right to work checked before the first interview.

Planning improves with continuity. Frequent changes in the team show up in stock and service.
