This role is key to ensuring goods, materials, services, and information move efficiently from suppliers to customers whilst balancing cost, speed, quality, and risk.

• Leading category management and sourcing strategies aligned with organisational priorities, commercial objectives, and sustainable procurement goals
• Establishing and maintaining strategic supplier partnerships through robust relationship management, commercial negotiation, and contract governance
• Leading supply chain transformation initiatives including process optimisation, digital procurement improvements, and sustainability programmes
• Developing and inspiring a high-performing team, fostering accountability, collaboration, and professional development across the function
