Procurement Manager

We’re working with a well-established membership organisation to appoint a Procurement Manager in a newly created role with real scope to shape and embed procurement across the business.

This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of procurement, working closely with stakeholders to introduce best practice, improve governance, and drive value for money. You’ll lead on supplier selection processes, review existing contracts, and support the organisation in building a more structured and forward-thinking approach to procurement.

The role will suit someone who enjoys both strategic and hands-on work - from developing policies and frameworks to running tenders and influencing senior stakeholders.

Key responsibilities include:

• Leading and improving procurement processes across the organisation
• Supporting and advising stakeholders on sourcing and supplier decisions
• Running RFPs/tenders and managing supplier selection
• Reviewing existing contracts to ensure value and effectiveness
• Embedding procurement best practice, governance, and compliance
• Contributing to cost improvement and long-term planning
• Strong procurement experience, ideally with exposure to setting up or improving functions
• Experience running end-to-end procurement processes
• Confident stakeholder management and influencing skills
• A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to work independently

This role is offered on a part-time basis, with flexibility around structure - either as a fixed-term contract or a day-rate/consulting engagement, depending on experience.
