The Opportunity
A high-growth, brand is seeking a visionary Head of Logistics & Supply Chain to lead and evolve its global operations. This brand has scaled rapidly across international markets-and now needs a commercially astute operator to take its supply chain to the next level.
This is a strategic leadership role offering real impact, autonomy, and the chance to shape the future of a next-generation brand known for innovation, speed to market, and customer obsession.
The Role
This is more than just supply chain leadership-it's about building a future-ready, data-led, and agile operation capable of scaling globally without compromising on quality, speed, or brand values.
You'll take full ownership of the end-to-end supply chain function-from sourcing and freight to inventory planning, tech implementation, and team leadership.
Key Responsibilities
Define and execute a global e-2-e supply chain strategy aligned with ambitious growth and commercial goals.
Lead a multi-region logistics network across air, sea, and land-balancing cost-efficiency with delivery speed and customer satisfaction.
Own global trade compliance, customs regulations, and risk mitigation strategies across diverse regions.
Drive data-led decision making, demand forecasting, and agile inventory management to ensure optimal stock levels.
Partner cross-functionally across buying, ecommerce, finance, and tech to ensure seamless operational execution.
Implement and optimise ERP, WMS, and SCM technologies to enhance visibility, automation, and responsiveness.
Lead negotiations with suppliers and logistics partners to secure competitive terms while maintaining service excellence.
Embed sustainability and ethical sourcing across the supply chain, contributing to wider ESG goals.
Coach and grow a high-performing supply chain team within a fast-paced and collaborative culture.
About You
You're an experienced supply chain leader with a strong commercial mindset and a track record of scaling operations in a product-driven business.
You've operated in a high-growth, entrepreneurial environment-ideally ecommerce, fashion, or consumer goods.
You thrive in ambiguity, love solving complex problems, and know how to balance strategy with hands-on execution.
You're a confident communicator and influencer, able to engage cross-functional teams and external partners with clarity and authority.
Essential Experience
4+ years in senior supply chain leadership roles, ideally within international D2C or retail environments
Deep understanding of global logistics, trade compliance, Incoterms, and customs operations
Strong ERP/WMS/SCM systems knowledge
Proven experience leading diverse, distributed teams across geographies
Desirable
Background in managing supply chains across Asia, North America, the Middle East, and Europe
Experience working within or alongside freight forwarding or 3PL partners
A passion for digital commerce and continuous operational improvement
