Interim Logistics & Fulfilment Project Manager UK | FTC 4-Month

Overview of the role:

We are looking for an experienced Supply Chain Projects Manager to join Unilever Prestige UK Hub for four months. The role combines two priorities: keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly, and driving delivery of a new warehouse opening. From January, day-to-day operations will hand over to our incoming Operations & Logistics Manager, and the focus of the role will shift further towards project delivery, with the potential to support other upcoming projects.

4-month fixed-term contract from November 2026 to February 2027, based in London.

Key Responsibilities-

• Lead daily Order to Cash operations across B2B and DTC channels through peak, ensuring service levels and customer commitments are consistently met.
• Manage 3PL, transport and carrier partners, resolving order exceptions, logistics disruptions and inventory issues.
• Monitor key operational KPIs, including OTIF, SLA performance and inventory accuracy, taking prompt action where performance falls below expectations.
• Support the year-end stock count and reconciliation with the 3PL, working closely with Finance.
• Work alongside the Supply Chain Director to support a team of five across Customer Excellence, Logistics and Master Data.
• Act as the operational lead for the new warehouse opening, working closely with the Project Lead to drive delivery against agreed milestones.
• Own the project plan, action log and weekly governance, ensuring stakeholders are aligned on milestones, risks, actions and key decisions.
• Lead warehouse readiness planning, including inventory planning, ERP–WMS integration, testing and customer communications.
• Partner with Commercial, Planning, Finance and brand teams to ensure customer service is protected throughout implementation.
• Support additional supply chain projects as required, including requirements planning and stakeholder coordination.
• Ensure all project activity is fully documented and effectively handed over at the end of the contract.

What We’re Looking For-

• Proven experience in supply chain, operations or logistics management, ideally within a fast-paced, multi-channel FMCG, beauty or retail environment.
• Hands-on experience managing 3PL partners and delivering new warehouse openings or implementations, from requirements through to readiness.
• ERP–WMS integration experience is essential; NetSuite experience is preferred.
• Strong project management skills, with the ability to build and manage plans, governance and action logs across multiple internal and external stakeholders.
• A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to take ownership and make an immediate impact.
• Advanced Excel skills, with confidence using operational data to identify issues, diagnose root causes and drive action.
• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively across multiple functions.
• Experience of working effectively in a fast-paced, high-volume environment, particularly through peak trading periods.
• Available to start in early November 2026.

What We Offer-

• Flexible working culture designed to fit around your lifestyle, with a minimum of two days working from our Southwark office each week. One of these days must be Monday or Friday, our designated office days.
• Generous staff discount across our portfolio of brands.
• Vitality Private Healthcare Insurance.
