You’ll play a key role in strengthening supplier governance, driving cost optimisation and supporting the continued evolution of our procurement function.

What you’ll be doing

Take ownership of developing and delivering category strategies that drive cost optimisation, value creation, and long-term resilience
Lead end-to-end sourcing and tendering activity (RFP/RFQ/RFI), negotiating contracts that maximise value and reduce total cost of ownership
Build and manage stronger supplier relationships, including performance reviews, governance and continuous improvement plans
Partner closely with stakeholders to provide pragmatic commercial guidance, supporting better decision-making across the group
Analyse spend and market trends to identify opportunities for efficiency, innovation and savings
Ensure procurement activity aligns with governance, compliance and third-party risk management frameworks
Maintain accurate reporting and documentation to support transparency and audit requirements

About you

You’re a confident, solutions-focused procurement professional who thrives in a collaborative and evolving environment.

You’ll bring:

Proven experience in category management and strategic sourcing
Strong commercial acumen and negotiation skills
The ability to influence and build relationships across a range of stakeholders
A customer-first mindset, balancing business needs with commercial outcomes
Strong analytical capability with experience using procurement tools/systems
A proactive approach, with the confidence to embrace change and drive improvements
A degree (or equivalent experience) CIPS qualification desirable

??? Recruitment Process

1st stage: MS Teams interview with the hiring team
2nd stage: In-person interview at our Derby office with the hiring team

What’s In It For You?

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.
