Shape Category Strategy. Drive Commercial Value. Deliver Better Outcomes.

We're looking for an experienced Category Management professional to join our Group Commercial team as a Group Category Manager.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who has already built a successful career in category management and strategic sourcing, looking for a role where you can truly influence procurement outcomes across a complex Group model.

You'll take ownership of end-to-end category management, developing and delivering category strategies that create commercial value, strengthen supplier performance and support long-term business goals. Working with stakeholders across the Group, you'll use market insight, supplier expertise and commercial acumen to drive better decisions, optimise costs and deliver customer-focused outcomes.

Working as part of a small, growing team, you'll relish the opportunity to be part of a dynamic commercial function, reporting to our Procurement and Risk Supplier Manager.

If you're passionate about category management, enjoy building strategic supplier partnerships and want to play a key role in the continued development of a growing procurement function, we'd love to hear from you.

About you

We're particularly interested in hearing from candidates who already have experience leading category management activities and developing category strategies.

You'll bring:

Proven experience in category management, strategic sourcing or procurement
A track record of developing and implementing category strategies that deliver measurable commercial outcomes
Strong commercial and negotiation skills with experience managing supplier relationships
The ability to influence, engage and build credibility with stakeholders at all levels
Strong analytical skills and experience using procurement systems and spend data to drive decisions
A customer-first mindset, balancing quality, cost and risk considerations
A proactive approach with the confidence to challenge the status quo, embrace change and drive continuous improvement
Degree-level qualification or equivalent experience
Group or FTSE organisation experience would be desirable
CIPS qualification would be desirable

If you’d like to hear how we can support you by adjusting our process, from application to interview and onboarding, please contact [email protected].

Use of AI
We recognise that AI tools can be a helpful way to articulate your qualities, skills and experience when applying for roles. It’s important to us, however, that we see the real you throughout the recruitment process. We hire real people, not polished personas! We simply ask that you consider carefully how and where you use AI during your application, so we can hear your own thoughts and meet your authentic self.

Please note we are unable to consider candidates requiring visa sponsorship at this moment in time. We won't be accepting speculative CVs from recruitment agencies, with a full PSL in place.
