What you’ll be doing

As our Supply Chain Data Analyst, you'll play a key role in helping our business make smarter, faster and better-informed decisions.Working closely with our Supply Chain Manager and teams across the business, you'll turn complex data into clear, actionable insights that help us improve efficiency, reduce waste, optimise stock levels and deliver excellent customer service.

This isn't just about producing reports – it's about understanding the story behind the numbers and making a real difference!

• Turning data into insights – Creating meaningful reports and analysing supply chain performance to identify trends, risks and opportunities.
• Keeping production on track – Developing weekly factory capacity models, spotting potential bottlenecks and helping teams plan ahead.
•  Making stock work smarter – Monitoring inventory levels, stock movements and warehouse capacity to identify opportunities to improve efficiency.
• Solving problems – Investigating stock discrepancies, analysing customer service performance and getting to the root cause of issues.
• Reducing waste – Identifying stock at risk of expiry or obsolescence and providing insights to help minimise waste and unnecessary costs.
• Working together – Collaborating with Planning, Operations, Warehousing, Commercial, Finance and external logistics partners to turn insights into action.
• Driving improvements – Challenging existing processes, exploring new ways of working and supporting projects that make our supply chain even better.

What we’re looking for

• Experience in supply chain analytics, data analysis or a similar analytical role.
• Advanced Excel skills – you're confident with complex formulas, large datasets and turning spreadsheets into useful insights.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a keen eye for detail.
• Experience creating reports and presenting information in a clear, engaging way.
• An understanding of inventory management, production capacity, warehousing or supply chain operations.
• Excellent organisational skills and the ability to balance regular reporting deadlines with new priorities.
• A proactive, positive attitude and the confidence to ask questions, challenge assumptions and suggest improvements.

Even better if you have:

• Experience working in food manufacturing, FMCG or another fast-paced operational environment.
• Knowledge of ERP systems and stock reconciliation.
• Experience using Power Query.
• A degree or relevant qualification in supply chain, data analytics, business or a related field – although equivalent practical experience is just as valuable!
