At Graphcore, the Supply Chain Planning Manager - NPI role offers an outstanding opportunity to be at the center of the AI revolution.

About the job

Plan the materials that keep Graphcore’s engineering builds moving from idea to prototype.

As Supply Chain Planning Manager - NPI, you will turn project roadmaps into practical material plans. You will support lab equipment, engineering components, prototype parts and consumables in Bristol.

Your work will help Engineering, R&D and Operations avoid delays during critical build phases. You will spot shortages, supply risks and inventory issues before they affect schedules.

You will work with Procurement to secure materials and track supplier commitments. You will also use data, scenarios and planning insight to support NPI and prototype development.

This role suits someone who brings structure to ambiguity and keeps complex hardware programmes moving.

The team and culture

You will work closely with Engineering, R&D, Operations and Procurement. Work happens through shared planning, clear reporting and practical decisions based on material readiness.

You will be trusted to take responsibility for supply risks, act quickly when plans change and speak up early. The role needs someone who can turn technical schedules into clear supply chain action.

Your impact will be visible in smoother builds, stronger planning discipline and fewer avoidable disruptions. You will help create the foundations for ambitious AI hardware development.

What we're looking for

  • Over five years of supply chain experience, preferably within the high-tech industry.
  • Proven experience supporting Engineering, R&D, lab operations, prototype builds or NPI programmes.
  • Solid understanding of supply chain planning, demand forecasting and inventory management.
  • Strong analytical skills, with the ability to interpret data and make informed decisions.
  • Proficiency in Excel, including VBA, data modelling, automation and ERP systems.
  • Hardware product-related sourcing experience is strictly required.

While we have outlined a set of requirements, we value transferable skills and diverse experiences. We also welcome engineers returning to the profession after a career break, including through returnship routes.

Benefits
· Flexible working: Balance your work and personal life with greater flexibility
· Generous leave: Take time to rest, recharge and enjoy life outside of work
· Retirement planning support: Up to 5% matched pension
· Phantom equity: Share in Graphcore’s success
· Workplace experience: Enjoy thoughtfully designed office spaces for collaboration, with free food and an on-site barista to support your day
· Peace of mind protection: Income protection and life assurance to provide financial security for you and your loved ones
· Flexible benefits: Tailor your benefits package with a choice of additional options, including private medical insurance and dental cover
· Optional benefits: Dental cover, health cash plan, private medical insurance, cycle to work scheme, give as you earn

We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences and are committed to building an inclusive environment where everyone can do their best work.
We’re an equal opportunity employer and recognise that everyone brings different strengths and perspectives. If you need any adjustments during the interview process, just let us know - we’re happy to support you.
