Life in the Fast Lane - Career Opportunities in Supply Chain Management
The supply chain is a complex sequence of events and decisions, which connects sourcing raw materials with manufacturing and the end consumer. Logistics is the management of this end-to-end supply chain, and companies are increasingly using supply chain management to differentiate themselves from their competitors.
Today logistics is becoming a boardroom issue, and companies in every type of industry are seeking people at all levels with the vision and drive to deliver continuous improvement in their supply chains.
Whatever your degree and experience, supply chain management offers a career that will continually develop your potential and reward your ambition in an ever-changing and challenging global environment. And since the demand for logistics professionals outstrips the supply, there are excellent opportunities for rapid career progression for those with the drive to succeed.
Irrespective of your ultimate ambition, careers in logistics and supply chain management offer early responsibility, exciting challenges with good renumeration and opportunities to travel.
We have moved through the ages of finance, production, sales and marketing and are now in the age of information technology. Many predict that the 21st century will be the age of logistics and supply chain management.
The careers information on this Web site is part of an initiative supported by The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in the UK that has produced a video and booklet designed for careers advisors, schools, universities and colleges to promote logistics and supply chain management as a career route.
