Who We Are No7 Beauty Company is made up of five iconic brands – No7, Liz Earle, Soap & Glory, Botanics and Sleek MakeUP. We believe in creating the best in beauty for everyone, innovating with ground‑breaking products while maintaining scientific rigor, environmental sustainability and social responsibility. We are an equal opportunity employer and empower our team to be authentic, fostering a culture where diversity, equity and inclusion are central.
About The Role In the Supply Chain team at No7 Beauty Company, you will delight customers with excellent product availability while managing a highly efficient operating model to maximise value for the Boots Group. You will manage the flow of products from supplier to customers globally, using insights, data and stewardship to help the organisation create and execute plans that deliver financial success.
We use S&OP to provide governance that enables us to set targets, monitor performance, identify risks and opportunities, and drive actions that enable us to deliver our plans. S&OP is visible through monthly meetings that review historic and future performance, driving alignment across business functions on tangible actions required to achieve the plan.
The S&OP Manager Owns and facilitates the S&OP process for No7 Beauty Company.
Key Responsibilities
Drive and maintain the cadence, efficacy and continuous improvement of the established S&OP governance meetings.
Lead the following forums: Account Review, Regional Demand Consensus, Global Supply Review, Global S&OP / Management Business Review.
Use these forums to focus the organisation on a mid‑term horizon (4–18 months) so proactive actions can be taken.
Support leadership in understanding recent performance (KPIs), reviewing and validating future expectations (up to 18 months), identifying risks and opportunities, and driving course‑corrective activities.

Capture minutes and actions, issue to stakeholders, and escalade to Supply Chain Senior Leadership where necessary.
Identify, seek approval, and drive opportunities to continuously improve the S&OP process.

Whilst this role does not own the actions that drive business performance, it governs the processes that identify and target these actions to appropriate stakeholders.
