Level 7 Diploma in Logistics and Supply Chain Management

Level 7 Diploma in Logistics and Supply Chain Management at HICL

Modern supply chains are stretched, digitised and politically exposed. Anyone managing them at a senior level needs more than functional logistics knowledge - they need to think in terms of resilience, sustainability, total cost and network design. The Level 7 Diploma in Logistics and Supply Chain Management is positioned for exactly that. It is a postgraduate-level qualification for working logistics and operations professionals.

The diploma assumes you already understand operational logistics. It is structured to stretch you into strategic decision making, network optimisation and the financial dimensions of supply chain leadership.

Supply Chain at Postgraduate Level

Companies that handled COVID disruption well, that have adapted to nearshoring or that have kept e-commerce promises through peak weeks generally did one thing right - they invested in supply chain leadership. The Level 7 Diploma in Logistics and Supply Chain Management focuses on those leadership questions: trade-offs, scenario planning, supplier risk, sustainability metrics and the use of data in decision making.

Who Should Apply

• Logistics and supply chain managers preparing for director-track roles.
• Procurement and operations leads expanding their scope.
