We’re recruiting for a fast-scaling FMCG brand with big ambitions. The business sells both direct-to-consumer (DTC) and via major supermarkets, and are preparing to expand into international markets. With strong values, a loyal customer base, and an ever-growing product line, they’re looking for someone to take their supply chain strategy to the next level.
The Role

- Navigate international supply chain complexities as we launch in new markets
- Collaborate cross-functionally with Operations, Finance, Sales, and Marketing
- Build and grow a high-performing supply chain team as we scale
- Implement robust systems and processes to enable visibility, traceability, and scalability
- Manage supplier relationships and contracts, including risk mitigation and compliance
- Support sustainability goals through responsible sourcing and reduced environmental impact
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience leading global supply chain operations, ideally in a scaling FMCG environment
- Deep understanding of both DTC and retail supply chains
- Experience managing international suppliers and navigating global logistics
- Strategic thinker with a hands-on, solutions-oriented approach
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial business
- Strong leadership skills with the ability to inspire and grow a team
- Commercially savvy with a focus on cost-efficiency and operational excellence
- Systems and data-driven – familiar with ERP/SCM tools and performance metrics
- Bonus: Experience in international market launches or exports
Why Join?
- High-impact leadership role at a pivotal stage of growth
- Work directly with the founder and senior leadership
- Be part of a values-driven, ambitious, and close-knit team
- Opportunity to shape a global supply chain from the ground up
- Competitive salary, equity, and benefits package
