Senior Supply Chain Manager
We are exclusively partnered with an ambitious CDMO undergoing transformation across its operations and supply chain functions. As investment continues and the business scales, a key leadership opportunity has emerged for an experienced Senior Supply Chain Manager to play a pivotal role in driving operational excellence and cultural change.
This is far more than a functional leadership role. You'll be at the centre of a business-wide transformation, helping to modernise planning processes, introduce new ways of working, and build a highly engaged team capable of supporting future growth.
What you'll be doing
This role has three key areas of focus:
- Leading the development and implementation of a new scheduling and planning tool.
- Driving engagement, adoption and cultural change across the planning function.
- Taking ownership of both Warehouse Logistics and Production Planning operations, ensuring the smooth execution of day-to-day activities while building for the future.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
