Up to £70,000
Essex
Assembly, machining, materials, suppliers - you'd hold the whole picture, not just a piece of it.
Our client designs and manufactures precision engineering components for motorsport and other high-performance sectors. They need a Supply Chain Manager to run planning from end to end: production scheduling, material availability, supplier delivery and stock, all working together rather than in silos.
You'll:
Own the schedule across mechanical assembly and machining operations
Convert MRP data into workable purchase and production plans
Stay ahead of supplier delivery, lead times and shortages
Weigh stock cover against working capital
Sequence CNC jobs to keep machines running and changeovers tight
Track delivery performance and inventory accuracy, and fix what's slipping
You'll need:
Solid planning or supply chain background in engineering or manufacturing
Strong MRP/ERP capability and confident Excel skills
A track record managing supplier schedules and material flow
Good analytical judgement and the communication skills to keep different teams pulling the same way
Mechanical assembly or CNC planning experience is a bonus, as is APICS/CPIM or CIPS.
A genuinely end-to-end role, not planning boxed into one corner of the business.
