• Lead supplier qualification, risk management, and onboarding, ensuring compliance and governance at every stage.
• Build and manage supplier partnerships, maximising commercial performance and creating competitive advantage.
• Deliver measurable transformation within your first 90 days, including strategic sourcing initiatives, savings delivery, and governance frameworks.
• Contribute to ESG strategy and represent procurement in client-facing meetings.
• Plan, design, and grow a regional procurement team to support future business needs.

Experience required

• 10+ years' procurement experience within Facilities Management, Fit Out, Construction or Real Estate Procurement. Circa 5 years + at Senior Leadership level.
• Strong track record of delivering procurement transformation in complex, multinational, matrix environments.
