IN-HOUSE GLOBAL PROCUREMENT STRATEGY ROLE - IDEAL FOR CONSULTANTS

Salary: Up to £70,000 + Bonus + Package
Location: Central London (Hybrid: 2 days per week in the office)
Contact: jobsmn@bramwithconsulting.co.uk

We're looking for a procurement business partner, category manager, or experienced consultant who wants to apply their strategic expertise in a high-impact in-house role. This position offers the opportunity to leverage your consultative mindset to drive meaningful transformation and deliver procurement value within a global FMCG powerhouse. As a Procurement Business Partner, you will shape procurement's strategic direction and drive transformative change across one of the world's most well-known brands.

Why This Role?

  • Internal Consultancy Experience: If you love the consulting world but are seeking a more impactful, stable, and career-defining role, this is your chance to apply your skills in-house. You'll enjoy the intellectual challenge and strategic business partnering that consultants thrive on, with the benefits of being embedded within a high-performing team.
  • Innovate & Lead: This is not about tactical sourcing-this is a leadership role where you will craft category strategies, lead cross-functional teams, and work directly with senior leadership to drive innovation, efficiency, and value.
  • Strategic Influence at the Highest Levels: Work directly with senior stakeholders across the globe, shaping business cases, driving procurement transformation, and ensuring alignment between procurement activity and global business priorities.
  • Career Growth & Development: Join a globally recognised leader in sustainability, innovation, and excellence, where you'll have opportunities for continuous development, exposure to different business functions, and a clear pathway for career progression.

What You'll Do:

In this pivotal role, you'll be focused on driving strategic change through:

  • Shaping Category Strategy: Work with senior leaders to create compelling business cases and build procurement strategies that align with company-wide objectives.
  • Influencing Without Boundaries: Act as a trusted advisor to stakeholders, using your commercial acumen and strategic thinking to navigate complex challenges and deliver high-impact solutions.
  • Driving Innovation: Identify and introduce new ways of working, constantly looking for opportunities to elevate procurement's role and deliver tangible value.
  • Delivering Results: Focus on spend transparency, pipeline management, and measurable outcomes that demonstrate procurement's contribution to the business's overall success.

Requirements:

This is a role for procurement professionals who are ready to take the next step in their career by moving from tactical sourcing to strategic leadership. You'll bring:

  • Category Expertise: Extensive experience in Indirect, HR, or Professional Services procurement, ideally in category management, with a strong ability to think beyond sourcing.
  • Consultancy Mindset: Whether you're from a consultancy background or have been in-house, you're skilled at advising senior stakeholders, solving complex problems, and driving change.
  • Business Partnering Skills: Proven experience building trusted relationships, influencing senior leaders, and aligning procurement activity with business priorities.
  • Analytical & Commercial Acumen: You can turn data and insights into action, spotting opportunities for improvement and creating business value.
  • A Strategic Communicator: You're a natural storyteller, able to craft and present compelling narratives that drive buy-in from diverse stakeholders.

Why This Role Stands Out:

  • Award-Winning Employer: Join a globally recognized leader that values its people, sustainability, and making a meaningful impact.
  • Purpose-Driven Culture: Work for a company that's leading the way in innovation and sustainability, with a genuine commitment to addressing global challenges.
  • Hybrid Working & Flexibility: Enjoy the work-life balance of a hybrid working model, while still being fully embedded in the heart of a global business.
