About Fussy

Hey good smelling! We’re Fussy…about everything in our mission to banish single-use plastic from your bathroom. Having experienced exceptional growth over the past four years, we are now looking for a talented individual to join the team as an Interim Supply Chain Manager, for a 12 month fixed term contract covering maternity leave. Note: This role is a 12 month contract commencing from 1st October 2026.

You’ll report to the Head of Supply Chain, owning end-to-end planning and execution across our growing B2B and D2C channels, and playing a critical role in shaping how our supply chain operates as we scale.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-growing scale-up at a pivotal moment. You’ll be a strategic partner to the leadership team, a driver of continuous improvement, and a hands-on operator who loves building things that last 💪🌍

About The Role

Joining as Interim Supply Chain Manager, you’ll take ownership of demand and supply planning across the business, building the systems, processes and partnerships needed to support scale while balancing availability, cash flow and service levels. Specifically, you’ll be responsible for:

• Own demand planning across B2B and D2C channels, translating forecasts into robust supply and manufacturing plans
• Lead end-to-end supply planning for long-haul imports, balancing availability, cash, and service levels
• Manage manufacturing plans in partnership with suppliers, ensuring capacity aligns with growth ambitions
• Manage relationships with freight forwarders and logistics partners, optimising cost, lead times and reliability (and minimising air freight)
• Oversee inbound freight, customs and international documentation, ensuring compliance with global trade regulations
• Continuously design, implement and improve supply chain processes to support scale and resilience
• Track inventory performance, identifying risks and opportunities across the network
• Collaborate cross-functionally with Commercial, Operations and Finance to align plans and priorities
• Lead the S&OP processes, ensuring alignment between demand, supply and business goals

About You

Great comes in lots of different forms, and we’re really open to seeing candidates from a range of backgrounds. Given the nature of this role and what we’ll ask of you, we do believe that the following skills are needed to be able to deliver to a high standard:

• Circa 5 years’ experience in supply chain roles, ideally within fast-growing supplier or consumer brands
• Strong demand planning experience, with a proven ability to turn data into actionable plans
• Experience operating in high-growth environments with both B2B and D2C channels
• Hands-on experience working with Freight forwarders
• Proven ability to build, document and continuously improve processes in evolving environments
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and decision-making skills
• Clear, confident communication skills and the ability to influence stakeholders
• Experience of leading and developing high-performing team members, creating clarity, supporting growth and holding people accountable for delivering great results.
• A proactive “get stuff done” mindset with high ownership and accountability

Skills

And anyone who has these skills too would likely be a super fit for this role, but these are by no means essential:

• Led or played a key role in S&OP meetings or processes
• Experience working with manufacturers based in China
• Advanced proficiency in Excel / Google Sheets / Google Suite

What We Offer 🤝

• A chance to play a part in banishing single-use plastic from the bathroom
• Competitive salary depending on experience
