Fractional Chief Supply Chain Officer

The fractional chief supply chain officer (CSCO) is an interim senior executive responsible for developing and implementing strategies to optimise the flow of goods, information and finances across the entire supply chain. The fractional CSCO ensures efficiency, cost-effectiveness and sustainability in the organisation’s supply chain operations.

The fractional CSCO typically reports to the top-level management, such as the CEO, COO or CFO. They collaborate closely with these executives to align the supply chain functions as per the organisation’s strategic objectives. The fractional head of supply chain provides regular updates, analyses and recommendations regarding supply chain performance, risk management, supplier selection and overall supply chain strategy.

In addition to overseeing supply chain operations, the interim CSCO can oversee a team of supply chain professionals and ensures their training, development and performance. The team plays a critical role in driving supply chain innovation, agility and resilience to support the organisation’s success.

Fractional CSCO skills required

If you’re offering your fractional CSCO services, you need strong leadership abilities to lead and manage a supply chain team and drive collaboration among different stakeholders. Effective communication skills are crucial for interacting with internal and external partners, negotiating contracts and building relationships with suppliers.

Analytical skills are necessary to assess and improve supply chain processes, identify cost-saving opportunities and make data-driven decisions. A comprehensive understanding of supply chain management principles, logistics, procurement, and inventory management is also vital to develop and implement effective supply chain strategies.

Additionally, being adaptable and resourceful are valuable traits to navigate the dynamic nature of supply chain management. Staying updated with technological advancements and software applications relevant to supply chain operations is crucial to leverage technology for process optimisation and automation. 

Fractional Chief Supply Chain Officer Jobs in Anglesey

Anglesey is an island county off the coast of North Wales, but is an integral part of Wales itself, with Welsh culture part of its inherent makeup. The island was joined to mainland Wales in the nineteenth century by two bridges near Bangor, one designed by Thomas Telford, the other by Robert Stephenson. Anglesey’s population of around 70,000 is concentrated mainly in the north-west port of Holyhead, which houses around 14,000. It is also the county town and an important ferry port, with regular services to Dublin.

There is a certain amount of tourism in Anglesey, but not as much as there is on the North Wales coast. The island is rather agricultural in nature, although the port provides an important cluster of jobs and helps the economy greatly. As with any port town, Fractional Chief Supply Chain Officer jobs do become available in Holyhead, which makes Anglesey among the best place in the North Wales region to find such work.
