The role covers 5 key European regions - the UK, Germany, France, and Spain. Total spend under management is approximately £150 million, split roughly 80/20 between 50 new store developments per year and asset maintenance for their almost 300+ existing outlets.

The focus is on collaborating with in-country leadership and property/design teams to optimize design and specifications, reduce costs, and ensure high standards, quality, and timely delivery across multiple projects.
This role reports to the Head of Procurement and works closely with property, design, and finance teams. Compensation is benchmarked at approximately £80k plus bonus and package, dependent on experience. The role requires in-office presence in London 2 days per week and moderate UK/European travel.
Requirements include:
* Experience and expertise in relevant subcategories: construction, fit-out, hard FM, M&E, capex, with prior involvement in retail/hospitality or similar sectors highly preferred.
* Strong negotiation skills and the ability to manage multiple projects across different geographies.
