As our next Procurement and Supply Chain Manager, you'll liaise closely with client procurement managers and supply chain managers within a variety of UK manufacturing businesses, applying versatility and consulting strategically with the senior leadership team and stakeholders. You'll be at the heart of procurement processes, inventory management, and sales and operations planning (S&OP). Your title will become Procurement & Supply Chain Coach.

This is predominantly a remote-based role, working with companies based across the UK.

The strength of your key relationships and collaborations will be vital in helping businesses thrive through those lightbulb moments. To make things happen, you'll need that blend of strategic planning and practical know-how, with a flair for hands-on interaction and collaborative communication.

Do you offer senior-level, strategic procurement & supply chain experience? Have you led and delivered projects, from planning through to execution? Are you commercially savvy with the knack and experience of building credibility and buy-in from a CEO right down to the shop floor?

If so, your next career step could be joining our mission to champion UK manufacturing enterprises through training, coaching, and mentoring. We spearhead transformational projects and deliver tailored solutions for our clients' unique objectives and obstacles.

The Opportunity…

This isn't about being the hero and showing clients how it's done! As business transformation coaches, we don't waltz in and rewrite the rulebook; instead, we harness and hone our clients' great ideas and goals, transfer knowledge, and develop theories and optimise processes. A focal point will be your ability to build rapport, engage your clients, and earn their trust and respect. 

You can expect to be working remotely, travelling to clients across the UK, four or five days a week. This is a nuanced, relationship-based role, and you'll be entrusted to manage and organise your workload.

Our values are delivered in everything we do through integrity, inspiration, and purpose. We place our trust in the expertise of our team and encourage collaborative efforts to exchange best practices. Our pride lies in our reputation for wholeheartedly celebrating victories and progress, driven by a genuine passion for influencing positive change.
