Job description

MEP Procurement Manager

Are you a strong communicator who can build relationships, influence stakeholders, and keep complex projects moving? Do you thrive in fast‑paced environments where organization, problem‑solving, and people skills matter more than technical knowledge? If so, Crown House Technologies is the place for you!

Key Responsibilities

• Support the delivery of best‑in‑class procurement services across a major project portfolio
• Implement procurement plans in line with project strategy
• Run and manage tender processes for subcontractors, materials, plant, and services
• Contribute to market insight, cost advice and supply chain performance feedback
• Support and guide a team of procurement professionals
• Maintain clear, accurate procurement information and reporting
• Represent procurement in project meetings and reviews
• Build strong, ethical relationships with suppliers and subcontractors aligned to LOR values
• Champion innovation, DfMA, and opportunities for self‑delivery
• Ensure compliance with corporate governance and procurement best practice

This Is a Role For Someone Who Can

• Lead conversations with suppliers and internal teams
• Enforce processes and ensure standards are followed
• Run meetings across different projects and keep actions moving
• Challenge stakeholders where needed, with confidence and professionalism
• Manage tenders, documentation, and procurement information clearly and on time
• Build strong working relationships at all levels
• Bring structure, organization, and pace to busy projects

You Don't Need to Be a Technical Expert — But You DO Need:

• Excellent communication skills (verbal & written)
• Confidence to challenge, influence and drive outcomes
• Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple workstreams
• Experience running meetings, managing stakeholders or working across busy project environments
• Ability to follow structure, apply processes and keep detailed information organized
• A people‑first mindset with professionalism, integrity, and ownership

MEP experience is helpful, but not essential. Transferable skills such as project coordination, estimating, commercial support, stakeholder management, or operations are also valued.

Desirable Qualifications (Not Essential)

• MCIPS / procurement qualifications
• Construction‑related diploma or degree – though the right behaviours and people skills matter more.
