Supply Chain Manager | Space Industry | Glasgow (On-site) | Full-Time, Permanent
We’re looking for a Supply Chain Manager to join our client in the space sector, developing advanced technologies for NewSpace Satellites!
No prior space sector experience is required! This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Supply Chain Manager to break into the space industry!
This role will help establish the systems, processes, and supply chain backbone for a new electronics production capability supporting satellite subsystems.
You’ll be working at the centre of a team building high-reliability space hardware, where supply chain performance directly enables hardware destined for space environments.
As a Supply Chain Manager, you will lead end-to-end supply chain operations in a fast-paced, high-tech engineering environment. This is a hands-on, strategic role supporting mission-critical production and scaling operations.
