Indirects Procurement Manager

Responsibilities

• Identify opportunities to consolidate vendor pools across international lines (e.g., consultants, recruitment agencies, travel management, and workspace facilities) to leverage portfolio volumes for bulk discounts.

Tender Leadership & Contractual Excellence

• Design and execute standard RFP/RFQ processes for global indirect services, ensuring clear evaluation criteria and multi-option worked solutions.
• Draft and negotiate commercial schedules, Statements of Work (SOWs), Master Services Agreements (MSAs), and SLA terms directly—ensuring the legal department has a clean framework for final sign-off without creating bottlenecks.

Requirements

• Proven experience managing global spend and supporting stakeholders across multiple international jurisdictions; you are not limited to a UK-only operational mindset.
• A degree in law, a legal qualification, or an advanced background in contract management is essential. You must feel completely comfortable reviewing and amending contractual language directly.
• Expert-level capability in analyzing financial spend, spotting hidden supplier margins, and translating data into clear, calculated cost-saving strategies.
