Responsibilities
- Work with clients to understand how their supply chains actually operate through site visits, stakeholder discussions, and hands-on diagnostics.
- Identify inefficiencies across warehousing, transport, inventory, and fulfilment, and develop practical, implementable solutions.
- Apply structured thinking to break down complex operational problems and define clear improvement pathways.
- Support projects across network design, footprint strategy, warehouse layout, and operational optimisation.
- Use data and analysis to support decision-making.
- Translate operational insight into recommendations that balance cost, service, and real-world constraints.
- Work closely with clients on-site and in workshops to understand challenges and test solutions.
- Communicate clearly and practically, focusing on implementable solutions.
- Contribute to project delivery, taking ownership of workstreams and outputs.
- Support proposals, pitches, and client discussions.
- Connect supply chain challenges with real estate solutions.
- Gain exposure to how consulting work is shaped, sold, and delivered.
Requirements
- 3–5 years’ experience in supply chain, logistics, or operations (e.g. warehouse, transport, manufacturing, distribution).
- Experience in practical operations, not just theory or models.
- Comfortable being on-site, asking questions and understanding how things actually run.
- Naturally curious and able to break down problems and think through practical solutions.
- Focus on realistic and implementable solutions.
- Able to structure thinking and communicate clearly (written and verbal).
- Comfortable working with stakeholders and contributing to client discussions.
