Description

Closing Date: 23-Sep-2024

We’d all like amazing work to do, and real work/life balance. That’s waiting for you right here. Supply Chain and Logistics are the engine room for getting thousands of products from farms and factories, through the business and to our millions of customers every day. We plan around events from barbecue weekends to Sunday roasts, and who wants oven-ready cauliflower cheese to those who prefer to make it from scratch. Insight and data are everything. But so is judgement — if there’s an issue or ambiguity anywhere, we’re the first to spot it. There’s a big transformation going on. That calls for people who champion change, bring others with them, collaborate and communicate. Because those people can go a very long way.
Why join us
By joining Sainsbury's as a Supply Chain Transformation Delivery Manager, you become an integral part of our transformation journey, helping shaping the future of our supply chain operations, driving innovation and enhancing operational efficiencies that will have a significant impact on our business success. This role offers a unique opportunity to lead cross-functional projects, contribute to strategic developments, and engage with a diverse set of stakeholders, allowing you to showcase your project management skills and strategic acumen while making a tangible difference in one of the core foundations of our organisation. The collaborative and forward-thinking environment at Sainsbury's provides the space for you to drive change, solve complex challenges, and influence key decision-making processes, all while working towards a common goal of continuous improvement and transformation.
This is a 12 month fixed term contract role and can be based from either our Holborn, Coventry or Manchester support offices
What you'll do
Here you will play a pivotal role in defining and shaping the future of our supply chain operations, developing market-leading capabilities, processes, and operating models to enhance our competitive edge and drive transformation across our business.

Utilising strong project management skills and cross-functional stakeholder engagement, you will drive clarity and simplicity, effectively navigating ambiguity to frame business challenges and facilitate outcome-centric and hypothesis-led approaches, fostering innovation, and inspiring change through storytelling and robust business case development. Who you are
You are a strategic thinker with a proven track record in driving end-to-end transformation projects at scale with demonstrable experience working within supply chain and logistics. With your expertise in shaping change initiatives and developing long-term strategies, you possess strong project management skills and the ability to lead cross-functional teams in achieving strategic business outcomes. Your capacity to navigate ambiguity, break down complex problems into actionable solutions, and communicate effectively with stakeholders at all levels to drive clarity, simplicity, and innovation in transforming the supply chain operations to achieve long-term benefits and competitive advantage for the business.
