Senior Consultant Planning

Are you willing to take the challenge of building a better working world, improving supply chain performance in a dynamic, digital world?

The opportunity - What future are you building towards?

In today’s shape-shifting world, companies need to do more than just meet customer needs — they need to anticipate them. Customers want on-demand access to products that are specifically tailored to their preferences. In response, companies and their supply chains need to be able to deliver as fast as customers think. This need for greater agility, while being mindful of the bottom line, places pressure on supply chain planning and the planners who are expected to keep pace within an ever-accelerating environment.

Supply chain planning professionals are therefore more and more relying on technological assets to assist them in their day-to-day job. It’s in that respect that EY has built a strong relationship with OMP.

Recruitment procedure – How can you prepare for a long life together?

The application process consists of a telephone screening, a skills and personality test, and three interviews.
 

A pre-employment screening will also be part of the process.
