Key Responsibilities:

The IT Procurement Manager will be responsible for developing and implementing strategic procurement plans that align with the company's goals and objectives.

Preferred qualifications include being MCIPS qualified, having good stakeholder management skills, experience with Microsoft license management, and managing the supply chain in a busy ICT environment.
