The Opportunity – Materials, Logistics & Planning Manager

About the role:

As a Materials, Logistics & Planning Manager at JCB Power Systems, you’ll play a critical role in ensuring the efficient flow of materials and products across the supply chain. This position is responsible for leading end-to-end planning, inventory management, and logistics operations to support production while driving cost efficiency and service excellence.

You’ll work cross-functionally with procurement, manufacturing, suppliers, and distribution teams to ensure the right materials are available at the right time, enabling smooth and uninterrupted operations.

What does this role involve day to day?

Materials & inventory management

Oversee the planning and control of materials to support production schedules
Ensure optimal inventory levels, balancing availability with working capital targets
Monitor stock accuracy, obsolescence, and slow-moving items, driving continuous improvement

Production planning & scheduling

Lead the creation and execution of production and materials plans aligned to business demand
Collaborate with manufacturing teams to ensure plans are achievable and efficient
Manage MRP systems to ensure accurate demand signals and supply alignment

Logistics & distribution

Manage inbound and outbound logistics operations, ensuring timely and cost-effective delivery
Work with third-party logistics providers and internal teams to optimise transportation and warehousing
Drive improvements in logistics performance, including lead times and delivery reliability

Supplier & stakeholder coordination

Work closely with suppliers to ensure material availability and resolve supply challenges
Collaborate cross-functionally with procurement, production, and engineering teams
Act as a key interface for supply chain-related issues and performance improvements

Performance & continuous improvement

Track and report on key KPIs such as inventory turns, on-time delivery, and planning accuracy
Identify opportunities to improve processes, reduce costs, and enhance operational efficiency
Lead or support continuous improvement initiatives across the supply chain

Team leadership

Lead, coach, and develop a team across planning, materials, and logistics functions
Foster a high-performance culture focused on accountability, collaboration, and improvement

This will be suited to you if...

You have proven experience in materials planning, logistics, or supply chain management within a manufacturing environment
You have strong knowledge of MRP/ERP systems and supply chain planning principles
You are confident managing inventory, production planning, and logistics operations

You’ll stand out if you also have:

Experience within automotive, off-highway, or engineering-led manufacturing environments
A track record of driving continuous improvement and operational efficiencies
Understanding of lean principles and supply chain optimisation

In terms of how you work, you:

Are highly organised with strong attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities
Communicate effectively and build strong relationships across teams and suppliers
Take a proactive, data-driven approach to problem solving and decision making
Thrive in a fast-paced environment and are focused on delivering results
Demonstrate strong leadership skills, with the ability to motivate and develop others

What happens next?

Ordinarily, our Resourcing Team reviews and shortlists CVs. If shortlisted, you’ll speak to one of our Recruiters to discuss the role further. Our interview process usually consists of an initial team’s interview followed by an in-person interview. We’ll keep in touch throughout the process but if you have any questions, please get in touch at [email protected]

What’s in it for you?

This is your chance to join a company that values expertise not only in rewards but also in real employee care. At JCB you don’t just get a competitive salary, 33 days’ holiday and access to our company pension—you can also use our onsite gym, in-house doctor and dentist. We have an ULEV car scheme available for our employees too. Then there’s the JCB Rewards Hub, which gives you discounts with high street retailers. Feel like biking to work? There’s our Cycle to Work Scheme.
