Client Procurement Manager
đź“Ť Home-Based with Regular UK Travel
Do you have chef, foodservice, hospitality, or food procurement experience, combined with strong client management skills? This could be the role for you.
This is a client-facing procurement role focused on helping organisations improve how they buy, manage suppliers, and deliver value from their supply chain.
You'll take ownership of a portfolio of client accounts, leading procurement strategy, supplier performance, and day-to-day delivery. The role combines hands-on account management with the opportunity to influence spend, improve efficiency, and strengthen long-term client relationships.
You'll do well here if you're commercially minded, confident working directly with clients, and understand the challenges and opportunities within foodservice operations.
