Job Description
Procurement Manager
Location: South Wales
Salary: Competitive
Are you a commercially minded procurement leader ready to make a real impact? This is an opportunity to take ownership of strategic sourcing in a growing, operationally focused business where your decisions directly influence performance and profitability.
Reporting to the Divisional General Manager, you'll lead procurement across domestic and international markets, ensuring continuity of supply, cost efficiency, and strong supplier performance. You'll shape sourcing strategies, negotiate key contracts, and build long-term supplier partnerships that deliver value across cost, quality, and service.
You'll also lead and develop a team of buyers, driving performance, setting clear objectives, and embedding a culture of continuous improvement. Working closely with Planning, Finance, Production, and Commercial teams, you'll align procurement strategy with wider business goals.
This role would suit someone with strong commercial acumen, proven negotiation skills, and experience in fast-paced environments such as FMCG or manufacturing. You'll be confident influencing stakeholders, comfortable working with data to drive decisions, and experienced in managing supplier relationships and procurement governance.
In return, you'll have the autonomy to shape procurement strategy, lead meaningful change, and contribute to business growth. This is a senior role where your expertise will directly impact cost optimisation, supply resilience, and operational success. If you're ready to lead, influence, and deliver measurable results, we'd love to hear from you.
