  • Excellent communication and influencing skills with the capability to build relationships across multi-functional teams and broad stakeholder groups.
  • Ability to effectively manage multiple initiatives simultaneously.
  • Desire and willingness to learn and develop through functional framework.

Desirable:

  • Recognition through an appropriate Professional Supply Chain or Project Management body (i.e. CILT or APM).
  • Master production scheduling experience.

Benefits:

You'll receive benefits including a competitive pension scheme, enhanced annual leave allowance, and a Company contributed Share Incentive Plan. You'll also have access to additional benefits such as flexible working, an employee assistance programme, Cycle2work, and employee discounts.
