About CRH and Tarmac

CRH is a global leader in building materials solutions, and Tarmac provides sustainable solutions for construction projects across the UK, supporting infrastructure development nationwide. From providing raw materials to expert contracting services, we are the go-to supplier for any building and construction solutions.

Sourcing Analyst

About the role

We’re looking for a Sourcing Analyst to play a key role in shaping how our national supply network operates (hybrid working). This is a highly commercial, data‑driven position where your insight will directly influence profitability, efficiency and customer service across multiple manufacturing sites and distribution points.

Working within the national Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP) framework, you’ll analyse production capacity, transport costs, product specifications and customer requirements to identify the most cost‑effective source of supply. It’s a role that sits at the heart of the business, partnering closely with commercial, operations and supply chain teams to ensure smart, balanced decisions that deliver measurable financial impact.

If you enjoy solving complex problems, working with large datasets and turning analysis into action, this is an opportunity to make a real difference at scale.

What You’ll Be Doing

In this role, you’ll be responsible for optimising supply source decisions across the national network, ensuring the right product is delivered from the right place at the right cost.

You’ll analyse customer orders and supply options, balancing production costs, transportation expense, capacity constraints and service requirements to determine the most economical solution. A key part of the role involves maintaining and refining the Sourcing model, including cost and revenue analysis, reason code tracking and monitoring non‑optimal or cross‑border deliveries.

You’ll regularly review production capacity and network footprint, identifying constraints and opportunities, and making recommendations to improve utilisation and efficiency. Alongside this, you’ll produce weekly and monthly reports that highlight performance trends, compliance with optimal supply decisions and opportunities to improve margin.

You’ll work closely with commercial, operations, logistics and planning teams to investigate deviations from optimal supply, quantify financial impact, and drive practical improvements. You’ll also contribute to the monthly S&OP process, providing analysis, insight and clear recommendations to support effective decision‑making.

As part of a continuous improvement mindset, you’ll support the development of dashboards and analytical tools using platforms such as Power BI and Anaplan, helping to increase visibility, strengthen governance and improve supply chain decision‑making.

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who is naturally analytical, commercially aware and comfortable working with complexity. You’ll be curious, detail‑focused and motivated by solving optimisation problems using data and insight.

You’ll bring experience in supply chain planning, operations analysis, business analysis or a similar analytical role, with a strong track record of working with data, building reports and supporting business decisions. Advanced Excel skills are essential, and experience with business intelligence tools such as Power BI or Tableau is highly beneficial. Familiarity with ERP or planning systems such as SAP or Anaplan will be an advantage.

You’ll understand how supply decisions impact cost, service and margin, and be able to translate analysis into clear, practical recommendations. Strong communication skills are essential, as you’ll be working with a range of stakeholders and presenting insight to both operational and senior audiences.

A degree in a relevant analytical discipline — such as supply chain, operations, engineering, business, data analytics or mathematics — is essential, with professional or process‑improvement qualifications considered a plus. Above all, you’ll be collaborative, resilient, adaptable and keen to continuously learn and improve how things are done.

We offer an extensive range of career development opportunities and industry-leading rewards, incentives and benefits:

Bonus scheme
Enhanced holiday entitlement
Contributory pension scheme
Access to the Tarmac Reward website with discounts on retailers, holidays, etc.
Access to our Employee Assistance helpline for free and confidential advice
Working Parents Training and development opportunities
