Job description

Senior Procurement Consultant - Major Projects

Manchester | £55k-£65k + Car Allowance

A leading consultancy delivering some of the UK's most high-profile programmes is looking for a Senior Procurement Consultant to join its growing North West team. This is a superb opportunity for someone with strong procurement experience and proven exposure to NEC contracts who wants to accelerate their career on complex, large-scale infrastructure work.

You'll support end-to-end procurement activity across major rail, construction and transport programmes, advising clients, shaping commercial strategies and running high-value sourcing exercises. Public sector or PA23 experience is beneficial, but the priority is someone who understands capital project procurement and can confidently navigate NEC frameworks. NEC experience will be central to much of the work, with the chance to deepen this expertise on industry-leading schemes.

This role offers significant variety, regular senior stakeholder engagement and exposure to multi-million-pound procurement challenges that will stretch and develop you. CIPS is preferred but not essential, what matters is capability, drive and the desire to grow quickly in a consultancy environment.

If you want to build a career in procurement on some of the biggest programmes in the UK, gain structured progression and strengthen your NEC experience within a highly supportive team, this is a standout opportunity.
