Job Role: Supply Chain Innovation Consultant
Location: London
Career Level: Consultant
Salary: Competitive, plus benefits.
The Opportunity:
We are seeking a Supply Chain Innovation Consultant to join our growing UKI End-to-End Value Chain team. This role offers early-career supply chain and procurement professionals the opportunity to contribute to large-scale transformation programmes, work with leading technology platforms, and build consulting skills in a structured, supportive environment.
You will work across the concept-to-service value chain - from procurement reinvention and integrated planning to digital thread integration, resilient network design, and sustainability - bringing curiosity, analytical rigour, and a strong focus on client value from day one.
Why this role:
- Join an expert, collaborative community at the leading edge of value chain reinvention.
- Benefit from structured development, hands-on client exposure, world-class tools and methodologies, and the opportunity to build a distinctive career across strategy, technology, and delivery.
In this role, you will:
- Project delivery: Support supply chain and procurement transformation engagements through structured problem solving, hypothesis development, analysis, and recommendation building.
- Analytics: Conduct benchmarking, process diagnostics, spend analysis, inventory analysis, and supply network modelling to surface insights and quantify value.
- Client engagement: Participate in workshops, stakeholder interviews, and discovery sessions, capturing requirements and translating findings into structured outputs.
- Client deliverables: Create clear, polished presentations, process maps, operating model designs, value cases, and implementation roadmaps.
- Assessments: Support end-to-end maturity assessments covering planning, procurement, resilience, sustainability, and data or technology readiness.
- Technology and AI: Help analyse, configure, or implement platforms such as Kinaxis, Coupa, Celonis, SAP S/4HANA, or o9, and explore how AI and agentic solutions can improve processes.
- Practice and learning: Contribute to thought leadership, offering assets and knowledge sharing while staying current on AI-enabled planning, digital twins, Scope 3, and emerging regulation.
