Aggressively growing FTSE 100 FMCG brand seeks outstanding Procurement professional to support the Procurement Director in a broad standalone ‘Chief of Staff’ role. The Procurement Excellence Lead is a new role designed to provide strategic procurement leadership to the Procurement team, with the individual acting as a Subject Matter Expert (SME), coordinator and facilitator of category management, supplier management and sustainability activities in an SAP Ariba enabled Source to Pay (S2P) environment.


The purpose of the role initially is to ensure the effective transition of the Procurement’s team to a strategic category management focused organisation.

This includes supporting the development of capabilities across the wider team to enable these activities; designing and implementing associated processes and review mechanisms; raising the awareness of business stakeholders and setting targets and tracking the organisation's progress.
  • Developing and optimising clear, consistent procurement standards and ways of working across Procurement, in turn driving functional efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Enabling the achievement of Sustainability targets.
