As the home of iconic brands such as Baileys, Guinness, Smirnoff, and Johnnie Walker, at Diageo we source, produce and deliver 6.5 billion litres of world-leading products every year across 180 markets globally. Because of this huge undertaking, we rely on highly advanced systems as well as the very best talent to make sure our businesses continue to run smoothly. To give you some idea of the scale of our operation, over half of our 30,000 employees work in our supply chains. We have teams in over 100 sites across more than 30 countries, but what matters is that wherever you work, you're part of a diverse, inclusive team where there are opportunities for everyone. Whether you work in planning, logistics, technical teams or manufacturing, you'll be part of an innovative, dynamic organisation. We set ourselves the highest standards, and our practices have earned us international recognition. And it's people with energy, dedication and problem-solving skills who'll help us get even better. In return, we offer a world of opportunities for you to explore, to shape and progress your career.

You'll utilise tools, DMAIC methodologies and ManEx practices to drive planning improvements and cost efficiencies across our planning and logistics function. You will drive continuous improvement activities through the leveraging of performance data analytics alongside internal and external insights.

The role also involves planning cover for our Cambus sites, where you will be responsible for covering for crafting and delivering the operational plan for our barrel park and filling store. The role involves working closely with our on-site 3rd party logistic teams, co-ordinating our fleet and managing them optimally to allow successful delivery of the weekly plan.

About You

You will have positive can-do demeanour, and the ability to make decisions fast, while dealing with high pressure situations as well as highly effective Interpersonal communication skills to allow you to carry out your role.

Bringing with you a well developed understanding of operational procedures, as well as willingness and ability to mentor team members to bring increased performance delivery are all qualities that will set you up for success.

You should be able to build and maintain positive relationships with both internal and external parties.

Experience in data manipulation and a good understanding of Excel will set you up for success in this opportunity.

Our purpose is to celebrate life, every day, everywhere. And creating an inclusive culture, where everyone feels valued and listened to, is a crucial part of this.

We know that for our business to thrive and for Diageo to realise its ambition, we depend on having diverse talent with a range of backgrounds, skills and capabilities in each of the countries in which we operate and to reflect our broad consumer base.

Join us, and you'll be part of an organisation that embraces diversity in the broadest possible sense. This means that you'll be welcomed and celebrated for who you are just by being you. You'll be part of - and help build - an inclusive culture that celebrates people of different gender, ethnicity, ability, age, sexual orientation, social class, educational backgrounds, experiences, approaches, and more. And you'll help us champion inclusion and diversity across our entire business: with our employees, our suppliers, across our brands, and within the communities in which we operate.
