- Mentor and coach two Assistant Directors, assisting their development into Associates as you in turn grow towards Senior Procurement Directorship
- Ensure the value of supplier management is understood within these high-profile categories to maximise value beyond the pre-contract procurement phases
Required candidate background:-
- Proven procurement, strategic sourcing & category management skills gained from a progressive procurement career within large FTSE 100 employers
- Previous HR, Professional Services Category ownership is a must, with BPO category experience being a plus
- Impressive achievements detailed on CV, including cost savings, risk mitigation, supplier consolidation, strategic vendor partnerships established etc
