The Role:
Are you a strategic procurement powerhouse ready to orchestrate the global supply chain for the world’s most innovative racing series? We are looking for a Senior Procurement Manager – Global Suppliers to join the Formula E team. This isn’t just a buying role; it is a high‑impact position where sustainability meets high‑speed logistics, ensuring our global operations are as ethical as they are efficient.
As a champion for the Procurement department, you will lead, advise and manage the acquisition of allocated global packages. You won’t just be filling orders; you will be the strategic architect of our supply chain, bridging the gap between global strategy and local race‑day execution. You will serve as the primary link between the Championship and our international partners, ensuring every contract drives value, innovation, and our core mission of sustainability.
* Strategic Tender & Contract Command: You are the master of the end‑to‑end tender process. From defining complex service scopes with contract managers to negotiating "best and final" offers, you drive strict discipline into every deal. You don’t just sign documents; you manage the full lifecycle of contract execution, resolving disputes, managing variations through rigid change control, and ensuring every award meets our elite standards.
* Global Synergy & Stakeholder Collaboration: You are the central pulse point for procurement synergy. You collaborate closely with Race Procurement Managers to identify scale opportunities and unlock value across our iconic host cities. By partnering with Legal, Finance and internal stakeholders, you ensure that every project is seamlessly communicated and that our procurement policies are a unified force across the entire ecosystem.
* Supplier Performance & Sustainable Innovation: You lead the "ground game" in vendor management. You introduce robust management frameworks, set tangible KPIs, and enforce strict SLA monitoring to ensure our partners deliver at peak performance. Beyond the spreadsheets, you are a thought leader, creating adaptable toolkits for risk mitigation and staying at the bleeding edge of market trends to ensure Formula E remains a leader in digital procurement and electric mobility.
What we're looking for in you:
* The Procurement Specialist: You possess proven experience as an expert leading end‑to‑end procurement and supply chain management for global packages. You understand the nuances of international service environments and have a demonstrable track record of acting as a champion for sustainability within a corporate ecosystem.
* The Master Negotiator: You are a master of "best and final" offers. Whether drafting complex contract documents or navigating market nuances to secure cost reductions, your negotiation skills are impeccable. You have the analytical literacy to identify risk items and implement mitigation strategies that protect the Championship’s long‑term interests.
* The Digital Visionary: You thrive on next‑generation tools. With a strong working knowledge of advanced digital procurement systems, you manage everything from NDAs and PQQs to global procurement trackers with ease. You are comfortable with figures and possess the ability to interpret data to drive departmental improvements and better value outcomes.
* The Influential Leader: You possess a confident, high‑energy presence that can command a room of evaluation panels, legal experts, and global suppliers alike. You are a "can‑do" problem solver who thrives in ambiguity, combining global and cultural alertness with the pragmatic drive needed to deliver excellent results in a high‑pressure, international sporting environment.
