Join Our Team as a Supply Chain Planner – Keep Production Running Smoothly and Efficiently

We’re looking for an experienced Supply Chain Planner to join our dynamic Group Supply Chain team. In this critical role, you’ll ensure the seamless supply of raw materials and packaging for our chilled and frozen production sites, enabling our factories to run efficiently and meet production targets while managing costs effectively.

You’ll be at the heart of our operations, using our ERP and MRP systems to plan, schedule, and maintain optimal stock levels—balancing service excellence with cost control and minimising waste.

At Hain, we're on a mission to build purpose-driven brands that help people live healthier, happier lives. With a portfolio of over 11 No.1 and No.2 brands — including household names like Ella’s Kitchen, Linda McCartney , Hartley’s , and Cully & Sully — we’re not just market leaders. We’re market makers.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop daily/weekly/monthly production schedules.
  • Maximise production efficiency while minimising downtime and changeovers.
  • Collaborate with Production and Site Management to align on capacity and shifts.
  • Maintain planning SOPs and process improvements.

Invoice Query Resolution (5%)

  • Investigate and resolve invoice discrepancies.
  • Identify root causes and implement corrective actions to prevent recurrence.

Data Reporting & Forecasting (15%)

  • Track and report daily/weekly KPIs.
  • Support procurement with up-to-date forecasts.
  • Audit master data for accuracy and support external storage analysis.

What We’re Looking For

  • GCSEs/A-Levels with 5+ grades at C or above.
  • Strong experience in a Supply Chain role, ideally in FMCG and frozen/chilled environments.
  • Proficiency with ERP and MRP systems (experience preferred).
  • Advanced Excel and excellent IT skills.
  • Strong communication skills—confident working cross-functionally with teams across Commercial, Marketing, Operations, Finance, NPD, and more.
  • Detail-oriented, analytical, and accurate.
  • A proactive, continuous improvement mindset.

Why Join Us?

You’ll be part of a fast-paced, supportive environment where your contributions directly impact our ability to meet customer expectations and production goals. This is a fantastic opportunity to grow your career in supply chain operations while working with a diverse and dedicated team.
