Greater Manchester, United Kingdom The Sterling Choice Full time
About The Sterling Choice

We are a leading food manufacturing business that is undergoing a period of significant transformation and growth. With recent investments in our site, a fresh and talented team, and an expanding customer base, we are poised for further success.

Role Overview

As the Supply Chain Manager, you will take on a unique and pivotal role, focusing on material supply and stock control. Unlike traditional supply chain roles, this position merges these two critical functions under the leadership of an experienced Supply Chain Director. Your mission will be to unify these departments, foster teamwork, and ensure the consistent delivery of products on time and in full.

Key Responsibilities
  • Team Leadership: Manage and develop a team of 4-8 individuals across the materials and stock departments. Your team includes several new members who will benefit from your guidance and expertise.
  • Operational Oversight: Oversee a complex stock and material operation, part of a business that produces hundreds of finished products, each requiring a diverse range of materials. Your role will involve taking a strategic, "helicopter view" to ensure a balanced, high-performing environment.
  • Inventory Management: Handle both on-site and off-site storage, including working closely with third-party logistics (3PL) providers to optimize operations.
Ideal Candidate

We are seeking a highly experienced Supply Chain Manager, Materials & Stock Manager, or Planning Manager, specifically within a short shelf life, multi-component food manufacturing environment. The ideal candidate will have:

  • Strong leadership abilities: with a knack for nurturing and developing teams.
  • Experience managing complex supply chains: and working with 3PL providers is highly desirable.
Why This Role?

This role offers the chance to be at the forefront of a company's growth journey, where your skills and experience will directly impact our success.
