IT Procurement Manager - £65K
Location: Remote (1-2 days per month in office)
Shape the future of procurement in a PE-backed, SaaS scale-up!
Ready to step out of the shadows and own something big?
Backed by a leading private equity firm, our client has doubled their headcount, revenue and customer base through rapid organic growth and acquisitions. Customer satisfaction sits at 95%, and engagement with their Technology platform has increased 4x. Now they're investing heavily in the next phase: AI, automation, and global enterprise growth.
To get there, our client needs a commercially sharp, ambitious IT Procurement Manager who wants real ownership, real exposure, and real acceleration in their career.
Why this role is different?
This isn't a "run the process" procurement job.
This is a greenfield opportunity to embed world-class sourcing into a fast-paced, PE-backed SaaS business - reporting into the CFO and partnering closely with Group Procurement leadership.
You'll:
1. Own sourcing and supplier strategy
2. Lead complex negotiations across IT, Software and Marketing categories
3. Build stakeholder trust at senior level
4. Identify cost optimisation opportunities
5. Drive smarter buying decisions using AI, automation and new tooling
6. Help shape the future procurement operating model
If you want exposure to executive leadership, influence without formal authority, and the chance to build something from the ground up - this is it.
What you'll be doing in your first 12 months:
7. Assess the current supplier landscape and implement a clear procurement strategy
8. Create structure: contract repository, sourcing governance, smarter workflows
9. Deliver measurable savings while protecting commercial value
10. Partner with Legal, Finance, IT and Marketing to drive better decision-making
11. Introduce continuous improvement initiatives (AI-enabled analytics, automation, systems)
12. Lay the foundations to scale procurement as the business looks to double revenue over the next 4 years
Who this is for:
You're likely:
13. Early in your procurement career but already operating independently
14. Ambitious, commercially curious, and hungry for progression
15. Experienced in sourcing software/services in a fast-moving environment
16. Confident reviewing contracts and negotiating favourable terms
17. Studying towards CIPS (or equivalent) - or keen to
18. Comfortable influencing senior stakeholders in a high-growth business
You don't wait to be told. You see opportunities. You act. You own outcomes.
The growth opportunity:
We're scaling rapidly - organically and through acquisition - with a clear path to global market leadership.
