Supply Chain Innovation Consultant in London

We are seeking a Supply Chain Innovation Consultant to join our growing UKI End-to-End Value Chain team. This role offers early-career supply chain and procurement professionals the opportunity to contribute to large-scale transformation programmes, work with leading technology platforms and build consulting skills in a structured, supportive environment.

You will work across the concept-to-service value chain - from procurement reinvention and integrated planning to digital thread integration, resilient network design and sustainability - bringing curiosity, analytical rigour and a strong focus on client value from day one.

Join an expert, collaborative community at the leading edge of value chain reinvention. You will benefit from structured development, hands‑on client exposure, world‑class tools and methodologies, and the opportunity to build a distinctive career across strategy, technology and delivery.

In this role you will:

• Project delivery: Support supply chain and procurement transformation engagements through structured problem solving, hypothesis development, analysis and recommendation building.
• Analytics: Conduct benchmarking, process diagnostics, spend analysis, inventory analysis and supply network modelling to surface insights and quantify value.
• Client engagement: Participate in workshops, stakeholder interviews and discovery sessions, capturing requirements and translating findings into structured outputs.
• Client deliverables: Create clear, polished presentations, process maps, operating model designs, value cases and implementation roadmaps.
• Assessments: Support end-to-end maturity assessments covering planning, procurement, resilience, sustainability and data or technology readiness.
• Technology and AI: Help analyse, configure or implement platforms such as Kinaxis, Coupa, Celonis, SAP S/4HANA or o9, and explore how AI and agentic solutions can improve processes.
• Practice and learning: Contribute to thought leadership, offering assets and knowledge sharing while staying current on AI-enabled planning, digital twins, Scope 3 and emerging regulation.

What’s in it for you:

• Competitive basic salary.
• 30 days vacation per year.
• Private medical insurance.
• 3 extra days leave per year for charitable work.

Flexibility and mobility are required to deliver this role as there will be requirements to spend time onsite with our clients and partners to enable delivery of the first-class services we are known for.

We are looking for experience in the following skills:

• You are an analytically strong and intellectually curious professional who wants to build a career at the intersection of supply chain, strategy and technology.
• Experience: 2-5 years in supply chain, procurement, planning, logistics or operations in a consulting, industry or technology environment.
• Core knowledge: Understanding of concepts such as S&OP/IBP, source-to-pay, procure-to-pay, inventory optimisation, demand planning or logistics network design.
• Technology exposure: Experience with SAP, planning tools, procurement platforms, analytics tools or process-mining solutions is valuable.
• AI confidence: Comfort using AI in day-to-day work and a practical interest in how AI and agentic solutions can reinvent supply chain, procurement and engineering.
• Analytical capability: Confidence working with large datasets and building models in Excel, Python or similar tools to draw meaningful conclusions.
• Broader perspective: Interest in resilience, decarbonisation, circularity and regulatory requirements such as EUDR and CSDDD.
• Communication: Strong written and verbal skills, with the ability to produce well-structured deliverables and present findings with confidence.
• Education and mobility: A relevant degree is expected; APICS CPIM, CIPS or Lean Six Sigma certification is a bonus. Willingness to travel to client sites is required.
