Job description

Senior Procurement Manager – Global Indirects

London | Hybrid – 3 Days per Week | Up to £75,000 + Package

Are you an experienced Indirect Procurement professional who has built a strong track record with your current organisation, but is starting to wonder where the next progression opportunity is coming from?

This is an opportunity to join a major global professional services organisation at an exciting stage of its procurement transformation. Rather than stepping into a rigid category structure, you'll be given significant autonomy and responsibility for procurement across a key global business unit, becoming its go-to procurement partner and helping shape how the function develops.

The Opportunity

• Taking ownership of end-to-end procurement for a key business unit globally
• Managing a broad portfolio of indirect categories, including areas such as Technology, Professional Services, HR, Marketing and wider corporate spend
• Partnering directly with senior global stakeholders to shape procurement and sourcing strategies
• Leading strategic sourcing, complex negotiations and supplier management initiatives
• Joining early in a wider procurement transformation, with the opportunity to influence processes, strategy and how procurement operates

What They're Looking For

• A strong Indirect Procurement generalist with experience across multiple categories
• Proven strategic sourcing, negotiation and category management capability
• Confidence working autonomously and influencing senior stakeholders
• Experience operating within a large, complex organisation
• An ambitious procurement professional who wants more ownership, visibility and room to progress

This role should particularly appeal to someone who has spent a few years building credibility within their current organisation but can see limited opportunities to move forward. Here, you'll have the autonomy to make your mark, a genuinely global procurement remit, and the chance to join a procurement transformation early enough to grow alongside it.
