Salary: Up to £90K + Package

Shape the Future of Procurement in a High-Growth, PE-Backed Business

This is a rare Greenfield opportunity to design and build the first-ever Procurement function within a rapidly expanding, private-equity-backed organisation. If you thrive in high-growth environments, love autonomy, and want your impact to be genuinely transformational-this role puts you at the centre of it.

• Partner with senior stakeholders to challenge spend and drive cost efficiencies

• Deliver sharp reporting, budgeting, forecasting and commercial insight

• Strengthen supply chain resilience and manage procurement risk

• Improve systems, processes and ways of working across the organisation

This is your chance to shape how the business buys, spends and operates-now and as it scales.

What You Bring

• Strong experience in procurement or cost control, ideally in PE-backed, real estate or consumer-led sectors

• Proven success in building or transforming procurement capability

• Sharp commercial judgement, financial modelling and cost analysis skills

• A self-starter mindset with the ability to influence and collaborate across teams

• Confident negotiator with deep knowledge of procurement best practice

Why This Role Rocks

• Total ownership of a Greenfield procurement function

• High visibility with senior leadership

• PE-backed environment with huge growth ahead

• Hybrid working, strong benefits and development support
