Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your procurement and strategic sourcing expertise in a new cutting-edge field. You'll work alongside innovative, detail-oriented, and collaborative teammates.

We'll look to you for:

Identifying and evaluating potential suppliers for indirect goods and services,

Ensuring compliance with company policies and regulatory standards in procurement processes,

Managing purchase orders and maintaining strong supplier relationships,

Developing and maintaining a procurement database for tracking purchases and expenditures,

Implementing procurement strategies that align with company objectives,

Collaborating with other departments to understand their indirect procurement needs,

Negotiating contracts and terms with vendors to ensure cost-effectiveness

All about you

We value passion and attitude over experience. That's why we don't expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we've listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

Degree in Business Administration, Supply Chain Management, or related field,

Familiarity with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and procurement software,

Strong negotiation skills and the ability to communicate effectively with suppliers,

Experience or understanding of procurement processes and best practices,

Knowledge of supply chain management and vendor sourcing strategies

Things you'll enjoy

Progress towards strategic sourcing excellence and procurement process improvements,

Work with procurement strategies, supplier negotiations, and cost-saving initiatives,

Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues,

Utilise our dynamic working environment,

Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries,

Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning
