All of our graduates start their career with an outstanding qualification in logistics, supply chain management and operations, and subsequently enjoy premium prospects for coveted positions in international business. Many of them find positions within multinational firms and organisations, partially thanks to relationships they have developed with representatives from the world of business – as well as peers – during the programme’s corporate and other networking events.
Job titles of alumni from the SCM master include:
- Supply chain manager
- Distribution manager
- Warehouse manager
- Operations manager
- Production planning
- Inventory manager
- Sourcing/procurement/purchasing manager
- Logistics information systems manager
You can find employment in a vast number of private, public or non-profit organisations in any sector. All companies, including service-oriented and non-profit organisations, operate supply chains and have value-adding processes which need continuous improvement. The job market in logistics is relatively insensitive to the state of the economy. In recessions, processes must be redesigned to improve efficiency and competitiveness. In economic booms, processes must be adapted to create new opportunities and beat the competition.
Many headhunting companies have a specialist division for operations and logistics. You can also consult the RSM Career Centre to guide you in your search for an internship or job.
