* Manage a £60m annual spend across Technology, Travel, Professional Services, and specialist market data vendors.
* Develop robust Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) and supplier governance frameworks.
* Act as a trusted partner to the CEO, CFO and executive team, aligning procurement with business goals.
* Negotiate and optimise key supplier relationships, driving value and performance.
What We’re Looking For
* Proven experience leading procurement in a carve-out, transformation, or greenfield context.
* Deep category knowledge across Tech, Travel, Professional Services, and ideally financial data services.
* Strong expertise in supplier management, risk governance, and contract negotiation.
* Hands-on leadership style with a commercial, strategic mindset.
* Ability to operate at pace in a dynamic, international environment.
* Comfortable being office-based 3 days per week in Central London
