Procurement & Third-Party Risk Management Professional
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Procurement & Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) professional to join a business at a pivotal stage of growth and integration. Following a recent acquisition within the fintech sector, the organisation is looking to strengthen its procurement and risk governance framework while maintaining the pace, innovation and agility that make acquired businesses successful.
This role offers the chance to work at the intersection of procurement, supplier governance, risk and business transformation, helping shape how future acquisitions are integrated and governed across the wider organisation.
Your New Role
As a Procurement & TPRM Manager, you will take the lead in embedding fit-for-purpose procurement standards, supplier governance models and third-party risk controls into a newly acquired fintech business. Working closely with stakeholders across procurement, risk and operational teams, you will assess existing processes, identify opportunities for improvement and implement frameworks that balance robust governance with commercial flexibility.
A key part of the role will involve developing governance standards and operating models that align with both regulatory requirements and business objectives. You will also identify opportunities to streamline supplier portfolios, improve commercial outcomes and drive integration synergies.
Beyond the immediate integration programme, you will help create acquisition playbooks, standards and templates that can be used to support future business integrations, giving you the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on the organisation's procurement and supplier risk capability.
