Procurement Manager

Procurement Manager

Locations: Uxbridge | Leicester | Solihull

As the Procurement Manager at Galliford Try, you’ll play a pivotal role in developing, implementing, and managing group-wide procurement frameworks for key spend areas. Collaborating closely with the Procurement and Supply Chain Team, you’ll build strategic relationships across the business to optimise budgets, leverage Galliford Try’s scale, and drive sustainable growth through an aligned, high-performance supply chain.


Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and implement trading agreements (both material/plant and indirect) to maximise cost efficiency across the business.
  • Engage with internal stakeholders to ensure agreements align with project and operational needs.
  • Negotiate and manage contracts that reflect Galliford Try’s market positioning, ensuring compliance with internal processes.
  • Monitor and reduce supply chain spend leakage, directing business activity to preferred suppliers.
  • Liaise with key business experts to integrate sustainability (e.g., low-carbon construction), quality, and innovation initiatives.
  • Promote "Be Well" and company values, forming strong relationships with external suppliers and internal teams.
  • Drive digital procurement progress—e.g., setting up self-service platforms and analytics (e.g., PowerBI) for streamlined workflows.
  • Establish procurement best practices, host workshops/buy forums, and capture lessons for future projects.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
