HEAD OF SUPPLY CHAIN
Most supply chain roles optimise something that already exists. This one builds it.
Our chain runs across Asia, the US and Europe, with three more countries opening. Where inventory sits, which entity holds it, how product reaches six markets, what we make versus buy — those decisions are live and unmade, and they're yours.
The question at the centre of it
We run three models at once: BOM-driven manufacturing, print-on-demand, and long-lead international sourcing. They pull against each other — and they're all the same question. At which level of the bill of materials do we hold stock?
Print-on-demand is postponement: hold something generic, differentiate late, cover many variants from one stock position. Push that point deeper and you carry less variety risk but quote longer lead times. Pull it forward and you ship rapid but carry obsolescence.
That trade-off has teeth here, because much of our range expires with handset lifecycles. A printed case for a superseded phone is near worthless. A blank is less exposed. Raw polymer isn't exposed at all.
It's a supply chain question rather than an inventory one, because the levers sit across sourcing, network design and fulfilment. You'd hold all three.
What you'd build
• The planning system — demand, materials, replenishment — and the data foundation it stands on
• Our international supplier base across China, Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, India and Europe, with real second sources rather than single-country exposure
• Network design across entities and countries as Germany, Australia and the UK open
• An S&OP; process that gets commercial demand and manufacturing capacity into one conversation producing actual decisions
• Inventory strategy — decoupling point per product family, safety stock policy, obsolescence caught early rather than written off at year end
• The function and its team: EXIM, planning, inventory, stores
You need
• 10+ years in supply chain with real seniority in manufacturing, not
