Supply Chain Manager Manchester, Hybrid (3 days in the office, 2 from home) £50,000 to £60,000 If you’ve ever wanted to help turn ordinary meals into unforgettable experiences, here’s your chance. Our client is not just about sauces and seasonings. They're about creating moments that stick with you. Whether it’s collaborating with household-name brands or dreaming up bold new flavours for restaurants, food manufacturers, and retailers, they’re always pushing boundaries. And now, we’re looking for someone to take the wheel of their supply chain. The Job You’ll be the one making sure that their bold creations get from concept to table without a hitch. That means managing the suppliers, optimising costs, and keeping the wheels of their operation spinning smoothly. You’ll: • Hunt down the best co-manufacturing partners and lock in partnerships that work. • Turn contracts inside out and renegotiate deals like a boss. • Work hand-in-hand with Planning, Procurement, and QA teams to get everything flowing like clockwork. • Crush inefficiencies, reduce waste, and boost inventory performance while saving us money. Basically, you’ll make sure the magic happens, on time and under budget. About You If you’ve done this sort of thing before in the food industry, you’ll know the drill. Here’s what we’re looking for: • Experience: You’ve worked with ingredients, packaging, and co-manufacturing deals. • Know-How: You know how to sniff out value, deliver quality, and make the numbers work. • Problem-Solving Chops: Whether it’s a supply issue or a contract curveball, you’ve got it covered. • A Love for Food: Because if you don’t get excited about food, what’s the point? What’s In It For You? They’re not just about making food better—they’re about making work better too. Here’s a taste of what you’ll get: • Competitive salary. • 25 days holiday (plus your birthday off because you’re worth it). • Monthly foodie events. • Pension, healthcare, and life cover. • Hybrid working (because balance matters). And the chance to work with a team that’s just as passionate about food as you are.
