With the UK on lockdown, the question on the lips of every jobseeker is: are companies still hiring?

The answer is a resounding YES.

1st Executive are seeking Procurement Managers with end to end sourcing experience within professional services, consultancy, legal, HR, audit, recruitment, marketing or travel for a FTSE100 global financial services organisation in Northampton.

Responsible for sourcing execution across various indirect sub-categories, the role and organisation is fast-paced, offering great progression opportunities and senior stakeholder engagement from the start.

If you can demonstrate end to end sourcing experience across the indirect categories mentioned, are comfortable presenting to senior executives within large companies, have a good track record of achieving savings targets and know your way around a contract, then this could be a great opportunity for you to fast track your Procurement career.

Ideal candidates would have worked within a regulated industry, not necessarily financial services, understanding the attention to detail required when working in heavily regulated organisations and the number of internal departments you need to work with in order to be a success.

If you would like to know more and pursue this opportunity, as well as being commutable to Northampton 3-4 days a week, please apply with your latest CV and get in contact with me at Jack.Williams@1st-executive.com
