Carbon ThreeSixty (CTS)
Carbon ThreeSixty (CTS) is a high-value engineering and manufacturing SME focused on developing and producing advanced structures using composite materials, such as high-performance wheels and electric motor components. Significant growth defines the operational environment. Our products typically start in low-volume R&D before transitioning rapidly into high-rate production. This journey demands a Supply Chain function that is not just reactive, but strategic, data-driven, and robust. The Operations team, supported by systems like Google Workspace, Xero, Slack, HubSpot, and WhatsApp, must ensure the seamless flow of materials—from managing technical lead times of specialised raw goods to guaranteeing high inventory accuracy—to prevent any halt on the production line. The Supply Chain and Office Coordinator role is critical to this mission, acting as the foundation that will stabilise and optimise our processes, enabling the company to successfully bridge the gap between niche R&D and high-volume commercial success.
Job Summary
The Supply Chain and Office Coordinator is responsible for executing the day-to-day procurement, logistics, and inventory control activities necessary to sustain Carbon ThreeSixty’s manufacturing operations. This role is fundamental to ensuring material availability, data integrity, and efficiency as the company rapidly scales toward the £50m growth target. The coordinator must ensure that supply chain processes are robust, compliant, and optimised for high-value, low-volume to high-rate transition in a technical engineering environment.
Key Responsibilities & Performance Metrics
This role is responsible for the following primary areas, with success measured by On-Time, In-Full (OTIF) delivery metrics, inventory accuracy, and lead-time adherence.
