Whether you’re simplifying complex data for senior leaders or guiding your team through ambiguity, you stay focused on outcomes that make a difference.

You’ll be joining a team that values shared ownership, curiosity and continuous improvement where ideas are welcomed, and everyone plays a part in delivering for our customers and each other.

You’ll need:

• Senior level proven experience in supply chain strategy, network design or capacity planning within a large-scale environment
• Strong analytical capability, with experience building or interpreting complex network models and data sets
• Demonstrated expertise in distribution networks, including facility location, flow optimisation and throughput improvement
• Commercial acumen and experience developing business cases for major investments
• Confident stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence at senior levels
• Experience leading and developing teams in analytical or strategic functions
