Head of Supply Chain & Operations | Fast-Growth Health & Wellness Brand | London (Hybrid)
The Client
Our client is an ambitious health and wellness brand that was founded with a simple but powerful belief: everyday products should work better for people and be kinder to the world around us. What began as a challenger mindset has quickly evolved into a high-growth business, redefining expectations in its category through thoughtful design, responsible sourcing and an uncompromising approach to quality.
Now entering a pivotal phase of international expansion, the business is scaling at pace across new markets and sales channels. This growth brings opportunity, but also complexity, and the leadership team is committed to building the kind of operational foundation that supports long-term success, not just short-term wins. They are investing in best-in-class supply chain capability to ensure that as the brand grows, it remains agile, resilient and true to its values.
For a supply chain leader who wants more than a maintenance role, someone excited by building, scaling and leaving a lasting imprint on a brand with purpose, this is a rare opportunity to step into a role with real influence at a defining moment in the company’s journey.
