At GCB we work hard to achieve our goal of becoming the world’s preferred and leading cocoa partner. Driven by our unwavering commitment to quality and innovation, we continuously strive to deliver outstanding personal cocoa and chocolate solutions to meet the needs of our valued customers, growing together with them in long-term partnerships.

What we are looking for:

We are looking for an experienced Supply Chain Manager to join our growing business. This new role will optimise the site’s supply chain processes, aligning logistics and inventory management activities with sourcing and demand forecasts, working in collaboration with stakeholders across key Departments. Strong experience in S&OP methods, 3PL management and stakeholder management will be key to your success in this role.

As a member of the site Management Team, you will have the opportunity to make a significant impact on the success of the business and grow alongside it, directly managing existing Warehouse & Logistics teams.

In this role you will:

Execute supply chain strategies that enable achievement of annual volume and margin goals, ensuring alignment with company objectives and tailoring plans to address specific market conditions and client needs.
Oversee demand and supply planning, forecasting processes in alignment with business objectives.
Optimise the site’s end-to-end supply chain to maximise performance in inventory management, lead time and OTD ensuring effective inbound material scheduling to ensure it is in line with business requirements and inventory target.
Drive implementation of key supply chain infrastructure and process improvement projects.
Oversee all transport operations, maintain strong relationships with freight carriers, and ensure timely, cost-effective deliveries.
Manage warehouse processes to ensure efficient storage, inventory control, and distribution, ensuring products are handled and stored correctly.
Work closely with Sales, Finance, Procurement, Production and Quality teams to align logistics with sourcing and demand planning, ensuring smooth operations.
Implement high-quality service standards and collaborate with the Sales team to explore new ways of engaging with customers and growing the business.
Ensure all logistics activities comply with safety and quality regulations, maintaining product integrity throughout transportation and storage.

Identify opportunities to reduce costs and improve efficiency while maintaining high operational standards.
Identify potential risks, such as supply chain disruptions or compliance issues, and implement strategies to mitigate them.
Lead and support the Warehouse & Logistics teams, fostering a culture of collaboration, accountability, and continuous improvement.
Conduct capacity planning in collaboration with key stakeholders.
