Procurement Excellence Manager – 12 month FTC
Your Consultant
Daniel Barnes
A leading UK media business going through a large piece of M&A activity is looking for a Procurement Excellence Manager to join on a 12-month FTC, supporting across a broad range of procurement operations and transformation projects.
This is a varied role sitting within the procurement function, working closely with senior stakeholders across the business on projects covering AI, data, risk, policy, process improvement and wider procurement operations. It would suit someone adaptable, bright and delivery-focused who enjoys working at pace and getting stuck into different areas.
This is not a narrow category role. It is more of a consulting-style position within an in-house procurement team, where you will be expected to support on a range of initiatives, help build structure around processes and drive projects forward.
