The Opportunity

* Improve planning tools, processes and ways of working over time
* Take full ownership of short‑term planning performance and outcomes
What We're Looking For
* Strong experience in warehouse or operational planning within logistics or distribution
* Good understanding of warehouse flow, labour planning, capacity and space
* Confident user of WMS, ERP or planning systems
* Comfortable in fast‑moving, changeable environments
* A practical, delivery‑focused approach rather than theoretical planning
Ideal Candidate Profile
* Operationally minded and commercially aware
* Experience in Warehouse Planning
* Clear communicator who can make decisions when constraints compete
* Structured but pragmatic-keeps things simple and workable
* Calm under pressure, particularly during peak periods
* Collaborative, with the credibility to influence operational teams
