    Default job background
    Description

    Job Description Squarcle is a growing digital supply chain and performance excellence consultancy dedicated to driving the performance of our clients.

    Unlike many consultancies Squarcle is as equally dedicated to delivery as it is to design.

    The Squarcle graduate programme will see our graduates working with both aspects of our client facing teams, the supply chain and performance excellence and the digital team.

    The programme will be co-led by the Head of Consulting and Head of Technology.

    Working together but often independently, each graduate will be expected to work onsite and remotely, with the client on complex engagements.

    'We optimise the performance of supply chains through the expertise of operations professionals, digitisation and data science'

    Squarcle is committed to equality and diversity and our aim is to build a diverse, dedicated, and high-performing team of subject matter experts to help our clients achieve supply chain and performance excellence.
