Job Location BROOKLANDS GO

Job Description

Ready to fuel the success of globally renowned brands like Gillette, Pampers, Head & Shoulders and Oral-B that millions of consumers can’t live without? Ever dreamt of a career where you are fully supported by world-class training and development to progress to leadership? We are looking for a passionate early-career talent to join our fast-expanding Brand Building Purchases team at P&G as an Influencer Junior Buyer within our Purchasing department.

This is an entry-level opportunity designed for someone who is excited to start their career with P&G and grow through hands-on experience, development, and exposure to a dynamic business environment.

What To Expect:

• Lead strategic and day-to-day sourcing for social influencer management, creator content and agency partnerships, ensuring the best overall value for P&G in line with purchasing strategy.
• Own core purchasing responsibilities including supply assurance, value delivery, policy compliance and supplier performance management.
• Use data, performance results and market insight to identify opportunities, solve business challenges and recommend effective sourcing strategies.
• Partner closely with brand teams to understand business needs, review results, identify improvement opportunities and build action plans that deliver impact.
• Manage key supplier relationships, including negotiations, performance optimisation and compliance requirements such as information security and data privacy.
• Work with P&G brand teams to put the right contracts, KPIs and expectations in place so suppliers deliver high-quality work against clear business goals.

What We Offer You:

• Meaningful work from Day 1: From Day 1, you’ll be working some of the UK’s best loved brands. You’ll be given the space and opportunity to bring your experience, energy, and new perspectives to make a genuine impact right from the start.
• Continuous Development & Empowering Culture: Our culture is built on a foundation of continually developing our people. At P&G, we offer a career, not just a job, and will empower you to become the best at what you do through continuous learning opportunities, a varied career path, and the opportunity to work alongside inspiring people. You will collaborate on impactful projects within a supportive environment where the company values are always embraced and expressed, and diversity is celebrated.
• Flexibility: We operate a flex at work approach, with flexibility built into the role. Our teams spend 3 days of their week collaborating in our offices. This is balanced with 2 of their days spent on focused work which most tend to do from home. Of course, we do a bit of both every day, but we encourage our teams to choose where they work based on the jobs to be done.
• Head Office Location: This role is based in our UK Head Office in Weybridge, Surrey which is an easy commute from London with regular trains from Waterloo and a free shuttle service from the station to the office. There is free on-site parking with access to dedicated electric vehicle charging points. There is also an on-site Costa Coffee, discounted restaurant for breakfast and lunch and a state-of-the-art gym facility.
• Competitive Compensation and Benefits: P&G take a Total Rewards approach meaning on top of your £45,000 starting salary, which will be reviewed annually, you can expect a whole range of benefits. These include a generous Double Match Pension Scheme; Private Medical Insurance; P&G Contributed Share Programme; 25 Days' Holiday, Onsite Gym, and your very own ‘Flex4Me’ Fund which enables you to allocate a portion of your benefits package to the areas that matter most to you.
