People Workstream Project Manager

We currently have an opportunity to be a part of the multi-year roll out of our Global Planning Transformation programme.

The Global Planning Transformation Programme is part of the Operations 2025 strategy and covers our end-to-end supply chains across our global supply network and truly aligns with our vision of a synchronised patient centric supply chain.

This will enable us to respond rapidly to increasing business needs and deliver competitive advantage through the capability developed by this programme. The end result is our supply chains will be synchronised from node to node (site to site) with clear and real-time visibilities.

Our scope includes our planning processes and roles across our internal manufacturing sites, external and internal supply networks. We will cover changes to our planning business processes, systems and information visualisation. This is a major undertaking that will increase our planning sophistication and will be a multi-year transformation.

This is an exciting and key project role where you will work closely with the wider programme team to ensure the success of this key project.
