You will support project delivery across the business, working closely with internal stakeholders and suppliers to align priorities, manage expectations, and keep critical deliveries on track.

This role forms part of a collaborative Procurement function, and responsibilities may flex across both Operational and Sourcing activities as required to support business priorities.

Requirements for someone with experience:

Strong understanding of procurement fundamentals (PO placement, supplier management, orderbook control)
Highly organised with excellent attention to detail
A proactive, self-motivated, "can-do" attitude with the ability to work at pace
Strong communication, relationship-building and engagement skills
Ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic SME environment
Comfortable working cross-functionally with internal and external stakeholders

Work in a fast-paced, high-impact environment where your contribution is visible and you can make a real difference to both the team and wider organisation
Join a supportive and forward-thinking Procurement team that values collaboration, continuous improvement, and shared success
