Croydon, United Kingdom New Avenues Full time

Are you a procurement finance specialist looking for a new challenge within an interesting business? Keen on driving cost down and understanding discrepancies?

A privately owned Retail and Wholesale business has a newly created role that will focus on understanding the cost drivers of the business and help to implement efficiencies to minimise wastage and overspend. This will be through analysing and investigating discrepancies, reviewing contracts and embarking on an ongoing project to reduce any unnecessary wastage and ensure contracts are the best in place for both the company and operational needs.

Reporting to one of the Executive team, this role will take both a big picture view point as well as deep dives into all areas of the business, including down to store level. It will scrutinise all costs on the balance sheet, look into any anomalies and cost spikes, working with the business to gain insight and understanding, and working to define and implement improvements.

You will be naturally inquisitive, have strong communication skills and confident interpersonal, allowing you to be able to influence others, gain credibility and the confidence of others to obtain the relevant information and drive change.

Experience gained within retail/wholesale, consumer products would be highly beneficial but not essential.

You will have great attention to detail, be able to work in a logical, practical and adaptable manner and be a self starter.

This interesting role will continuously evolve.
