Job description

Are you ready to shape and lead the procurement agenda for a growing organisation?
We’re looking for a Senior Procurement Manager to be the centre of excellence for all things procurement. A hands-on leader who can set the direction, build best practice, and roll up their sleeves when needed.

This is a newly created role with huge scope. You’ll work across diverse categories, from services and goods to tech and indirect spend, with a blend of strategic and operational responsibilities. One day you could be leading a major tender, the next implementing a new procurement process or supporting managers to close capability gaps.

What you’ll be doing

  • Own and lead the full end-to-end procurement lifecycle across multiple categories.
  • Develop and embed best practice procurement and contract management processes.
  • Partner with stakeholders at all levels to deliver value, compliance and strong commercial outcomes.
  • Drive procurement training, awareness and upskilling initiatives.
  • Shape and implement policies and purchase-to-pay processes.
  • Build effective supplier relationships and support onboarding activities.

What you’ll bring

  • Proven experience in procurement management (category or senior level) across a wide range of categories.
  • Strong commercial acumen with knowledge of best practice procurement principles.
  • Skilled in tendering, negotiation and supplier performance and relationship management.
  • Excellent stakeholder engagement skills, confident influencing at senior levels.
  • A proactive, hands-on approach – able to deliver results and drive change independently.
  • Comfortable working in evolving environments and building processes from the ground up.
  • Desirable skills - Experience spanning multiple sectors. MCIPS qualification (or working towards it). Exposure to transformation programmes or greenfield environments.

Why join us?

This is a unique opportunity to make your mark in a newly created role – bringing fresh thinking, embedding best practice, and shaping procurement for the future. If you’re pragmatic, adaptable, and motivated by driving real impact, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply now to lead, influence, and deliver as our Senior Procurement Manager.
 
What benefits will I have?

We have a range of benefits that you can mix and match to suit you, such as:

  • Wagestream – an app that gives you access to a percentage of your pay as you earn it, access to coaching, vouchers, discounts, cashback and more.  
  • Blue Light Card – we will reimburse your Blue Light Card membership which provides discounts in your favourite shops and restaurants.
  • Simply Health - Fully funded health cash plans giving you access to a 24-hour GP, money back on prescriptions, dental treatment, opticians and access to many more health benefits.
  • Vivup – spread the cost of home and electronics items, or a bike to cycle to work through fixed salary reductions throughout the year.
  • Buy and sell annual leave – transfer windows open twice a year.
  • Pension and Life Assurance - you’ll be enrolled into our Scottish Widows pension scheme and Life Assurance scheme

If you are offered a role with us, you will need to complete a standard DBS check. We will submit your application and pay for your check. 
 
We’re committed to being Disability Confident and we guarantee to interview all applicants with a disability who meet the minimum criteria for the vacancy.
