Supply Chain Administrator (Chelmsford)

Job Description

Supply Chain Administrator, Chelmsford (March 2022)

Who are CloudNC?

At CloudNC we are ambitiously and successfully developing deep technology that automates CNC Manufacturing. We have a factory running commercially to produce intricate and high-specification work for our clients, allowing us to also tie in our software to a tangible, physical output whilst driving revenue.

In excess of £150 Bn worth of components are produced using CNC machines every year. The industry is reliant heavily on human input, it is slow and costly. Demand and value of the industry is rapidly growing, as are the increased demands on a vanishing workforce (50% will retire within the next decade).

We are driving a manufacturing revolution (Industry 4.0) and we have achieved notable success and world firsts where others have failed. We are ambitiously scaling up with credible backing, with incredible backers, and exceptional teams. We have been featured in Forbes and technology linked organisations (e.g. TechCrunch, The Engineer etc.), we were awarded and named as Technology Pioneers by the World Economic Forum and our founders are listed in the Forbes 30 under 30.
