A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a dynamic, ambitious, career-oriented, graduate calibre professional to join a successful, well-established international and market-leading business, on a full time, permanent basis in the Rainhill area as Supply Chain Analyst.

Whilst you may not know the company products and services, each day they work with businesses that impact the lives of millions of people. The business is ambitious, and with plans to grow in the UK service industry they have an unrelenting desire to become an employer of choice. It is a meritocracy, and they promote and reward individuals who deliver against objectives and show great performance. Ambition and enthusiasm are key traits of their employees who live the values of respect, integrity, exemplarity and responsibility.

To give you a feel for their ethics and commitment, the company recently achieved the PLATINUM level of Ecovadis positioning them among the Top 1% of the 125,000 companies assessed by Ecovadis, meaning a commitment to minimising environmental impact.

Working within the textile sector of this global business, as Supply Chain Analyst, you will ultimately lead linen management initiatives across the UK company plant / plants, which at a global level is an investment of several hundred million pounds. You will ensure that customer product availability is maximised, whilst controlling textile spend to ensure the company realises maximum value from their investment in textiles.

This is an exciting, yet challenging role, as it calls for an individual skilled in statistical analysis who can interpret complex data sets, assess customer trends, historical sales and seasonality data to deliver to customer demand in the most efficient way possible. This will be combined with a highly strategic and commercial approach, and an ability to work across multiple departments (sales, account management, customer services, operations) providing meaningful insight from the data from which commercial decisions will be based. Exceptional communication, organisational and inter-personal skills therefore will be required. As you will liaise with senior leadership teams across company sites you will need to establish credibility and a professional can-do attitude reflecting urgency and someone that "gets things done".

Preference will be given to Degree / Master's educated candidates (Business, Supply Chain Management), who possess 2-5 years' commercial experience in a fast paced, service led business. Additional qualifications and / or commitment to continued personal development will also be an advantage.

The business is innovative, successful and can provide a platform for genuine career development. They want to hear from people who are looking for a career (not a job) who are goal / results oriented, resilient and want to push themselves into further senior management. As such, preference will be given to ambitious, career-oriented individuals with personal drive and integrity who are flexible, energetic and hard working.

For immediate consideration send your CV without delay!
