Supply Chain Manager – Poole • £65,000 – £85,000 per year

This manufacturer in Poole has big growth plans and needs a Supply Chain Manager who can build something solid for the long term. They’re not after a clipboard manager or a PowerPoint strategist; they want someone practical, commercial and switched on, who can see the whole picture from machining capacity and quality through to cost and delivery.

• Creating and rolling out a proper supply chain strategy that works in practice
• Building strong relationships with suppliers and manufacturing partners in the UK and overseas
• Working closely with the engineering team to make sure drawings and technical packs are right first time
• Taking control of materials and inventory, keeping stock lean without causing stockouts
• Introducing better systems for just-in-time and vendor-managed stock
• Forecasting demand with sales and finance so you’re always one step ahead
• Setting clear KPIs for suppliers and keeping them honest with regular reviews
• Keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes while helping the business scale confidently

• Solid experience as a Supply Chain Manager or similar in engineering or manufacturing
• A good grasp of CNC machining and what it takes to get parts made right first time
• Comfortable reading engineering drawings and understanding tolerances
• Commercial awareness and strong negotiation skills
• Confidence dealing with suppliers, engineers and senior management alike
• A knack for spotting where things could run better — and making it happen
• Experience with additive or 3D manufacturing would be a bonus, but not essential

• £65,000 to £85,000 depending on experience
• A genuine leadership role with freedom to make your mark
• Support from a forward-thinking CEO who listens to good ideas
• Long-term job security with a company investing heavily in its future
• A chance to build a supply chain from the ground up, the right way

If you like fixing problems before they become problems, enjoy working with good people, and want to build something that lasts, this could be a great move.
