Home. There's no place like it. And there's no feeling like helping people create the joy of feeling truly at home. At Dunelm, that's what we do. We're the UK's number one choice for homewares because we make home life lovelier for our customers. And the caring and supportive culture we've created makes this a place you'll feel right at home too.
We are the UK's Number One homewares retailer offering over 70,000 products building a consumer-focused total retail business that delights customers through our multichannel operation.
We are ambitious in our plans to drive further expansion of the business to more customers, shopping more frequently, with more choice, enhanced digital and physical services, and new capabilities to innovate and operate at pace in a fast-changing landscape.
In developing the business for the long-term benefit of our customers, we are investing in our supply chain, stores and technology to improve the customer proposition as we move forward.
Department Overview
The Dunelm Procurement team is dedicated to the delivery of sustainable value from Dunelm Non-Stock relationships in support of the wider company objectives.
They are a thriving and diverse team using their expert knowledge to innovate and protect, while offering agile and proportionate support.
The team are responsible for >£300m of non-stock spend, with the largest areas of spend being supply chain, technology, marketing, store development and maintenance.
The team sits within the Chief Finance Officer (CFO) function and plays a critical role supporting the delivery of high-value projects and operations across the business.
Likewise, it plays a critical role in the future growth aspirations of the business; so our influence spreads across both new spend initiatives and existing contract renewals.
The Procurement function have ambitious plans to continue their successful journey, whilst also evolving the function to take it to the next stage of its maturity.
