GROUP PROCUREMENT MANAGER

ROLE OVERVIEW
We need a Group Procurement Manager to take ownership of our national supplier strategy and build something that works: a rationalised, trusted, well-governed supplier network that our property management teams can rely on every day.
This is a new role leading an established contracts team. You will inherit a supplier base that spans multiple brands and regions, and your job is to cleanse, align and strengthen it, improving service quality, commercial value and compliance across the board.
You will set the direction, lead the team and work closely with operational stakeholders to make procurement a genuine enabler of better outcomes for customers.
ROLE EXPECTATIONS
This is a senior, hands on role with genuine scope to shape how procurement works across the Group.
You will be expected to assess the current supplier landscape with clear eyes, identify what needs to change and lead a structured programme to fix it, reducing duplication, closing gaps and raising performance standards.
You will manage a small contracts team, set clear standards and ensure that contract administration, renewals and tender activity are delivered with consistency and governance.
You will need to hold your own commercially with suppliers, influence internal stakeholders across multiple brands and translate operational needs into effective procurement strategies.
WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
You will be successful in this role if:
- The supplier base is rationalised, compliant and trusted by operational teams
- Contract renewals and tender activity are delivered on time, every time
- Supplier SLA and KPI performance measurably improves
- Commercial savings and value improvements are demonstrated
- The contracts team operates with clear accountability and high standards
- Property and customer support teams can confidently rely on the approved supplier network
HOW YOU’LL SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME
Most weeks, you will be:
- Developing and implementing the Group-wide procurement strategy
- Leading supplier rationalisation, performance improvement and alignment programmes
- Overseeing contract renewals, tender processes and contract administration across all brands
- Negotiating with suppliers to secure strong commercial terms and quality outcomes
- Managing and developing the contracts team
- Defining and monitoring supplier KPIs, SLAs and service review mechanisms
- Ensuring all suppliers meet health and safety, compliance and accreditation requirements
- Partnering with property management, operations, finance, risk and regional teams
You will be nationally based with travel as required across the Group’s brands and regions.
