Supply Chain

Behind every product on a shelf - from laundry detergents and vitamins to personal care essentials - there’s a complex network working tirelessly to make it happen. At Church & Dwight, our Supply Chain team is the heartbeat of our operation. They’re the people who make sure our products move seamlessly from idea to ingredient, from production line to store aisle, and ultimately into the hands of millions of consumers around the world.

It’s a team that connects every part of our business - from R&D and manufacturing to marketing, sales, and logistics - ensuring that the things we make get where they need to be, when they’re needed most. In short, supply chain is how we deliver on our promises to consumers every single day.

Here’s how they make that happen…

What Our Supply Chain Team Does

Our supply chain function is responsible for managing the entire product journey, from sourcing raw materials to delivering finished goods across the globe. It’s an end-to-end process built on precision, planning, and collaboration.

That means we:

• Source quality materials and ingredients from trusted suppliers.
• Plan and schedule production so products are made efficiently and on time.
• Partner with manufacturing to ensure safety, quality, and consistency.
• Oversee logistics and distribution so products reach retailers and customers quickly and reliably.

What makes our approach unique is how closely we work across the business. The supply chain team is deeply integrated with functions like R&D, marketing, sales, and finance, ensuring decisions are informed, data-driven, and aligned with company goals. We’re not just moving goods - we’re building bridges between innovation and delivery.

We also never stop improving. Whether it’s finding more sustainable sourcing options, reducing transportation emissions, or optimising routes for cost savings and speed, continuous improvement is built into everything we do.

What a Day in Supply Chain Looks Like

No two days are ever the same - and that’s part of what makes working in supply chain so exciting. Our team is made up of specialists across key disciplines, including:

• Procurement: sourcing materials and negotiating supplier contracts.
• Planning: forecasting demand, scheduling production, and aligning capacity.
• Manufacturing: partnering with operations to maintain quality and efficiency.
• Logistics & Distribution: managing transportation, warehousing, and delivery networks.
• Supply Planning: balancing inventory and demand to keep products flowing smoothly.

We also work hand-in-hand with suppliers, logistics providers, and retailers - building strong partnerships that help us adapt quickly to market changes and keep shelves stocked. And with powerful tools, data platforms, and forecasting technology, we’re always finding smarter, faster ways to make decisions.

It’s a dynamic, fast-moving environment where strategic thinkers and detail-oriented problem-solvers thrive. And whether you’re starting out in an entry-level role or leading a global team, there’s always room to grow and make an impact.
