Job Specifications

A growing global organisation in the life sciences sector is seeking a Senior Supply Chain Analyst to join its Technical Operations function on a 12-month fixed-term contract. If you enjoy solving operational problems, building smart digital tools, and elevating how teams use data, this role will give you the freedom to make a real impact from day one.

The Opportunity

You’ll be the analytical engine behind a busy supply chain team that is currently transforming how it uses data. The business is implementing new dashboards, improving planning processes, and preparing for future digital systems. What they need is someone who can turn complex data into clarity — and who loves using Excel and Power BI to make operations run better, faster, and smarter.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Streamlining and improving monthly planning processes (currently Excel-heavy)

• Picking up, maintaining, and enhancing new Power BI dashboards

• Supporting planning, finance, logistics, and senior leadership with high-quality analysis

• Identifying inefficiencies and driving data-led improvements

• Preparing the function for future system implementations through better data foundations

• Becoming a go-to analytical expert who helps raise maturity across the team

What You’ll Bring

• Very strong Excel skills (advanced modelling, Power Query, complex analysis)

• Hands-on Power BI experience – able to build, maintain, and evolve dashboards

• A solid understanding of supply chain planning, S&OP, inventory, or logistics

• Ability to work cross-functionally and manage shifting priorities

• Curiosity, initiative, and a mindset that always looks for a better way of doing things

• Experience with Python/SQL/Tableau is a bonus, not essential

Why This Role?

• You’ll make an immediate and visible difference

• You’ll shape how a function uses data during a key transformation

• You’ll work closely with supportive leaders who value insight and efficiency

What’s in It for You

This role comes with a strong benefits package designed to support your health and wellbeing including:

• Private medical insurance through a leading provider

• Dental cover and access to 24/7 online GP services

• Generous pension scheme with flexible contributions

• Income protection and life assurance

• 25 days’ holiday plus bank holidays and a paid shutdown between Christmas and New Year to name a few

Location

Hybrid – 3 days per week on-site.

If you’re someone who loves solving real operational problems, enjoys improving digital tools, and wants the space to influence how a supply chain team evolves, I’d love to hear from you.
