Joining a friendly team of six, you will ensure end-to-end supply of finished goods by creating and managing effective supply plans and liaising with a wide range of third party suppliers.

In addition to a competitive base salary and comprehensive range of benefits, the company offers fantastic progression opportunities, both within the UK and internationally.
