About Squarcle/The Team

Squarcle is an independent strategy and operations consultancy. We are dedicated to ensuring that our clients have both a well-defined strategy and a supply chain that are aligned to provide a performance advantage. Squarcle is a people orientated organisation that prides itself on its culture and strives to build a family of high performing experts to tackle the constantly evolving challenges of the global supply chain.

Working together or independently each consultant will be expected to work, onsite and remotely, with our clients to help them resolve their most complex and exciting support chain challenges.

Squarcle is committed to equality and diversity. Our aim is to build a diverse, dedicated, and high-performing team of subject matter experts to help our clients achieve supply chain and operational excellence.
