Procurement Manager
Aldershot | £55,000–£60,000 | Office Based | Growing Business
Are you an experienced Procurement Manager looking for a role where you can genuinely influence business performance rather than simply manage purchasing? We're recruiting on behalf of a well-established and growing business that supplies products to customers across the UK and internationally. This is a key leadership position where you'll take ownership of procurement strategy, supplier performance, commercial negotiations and product compliance, while managing a small team and working closely with senior leadership.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys combining strategic thinking with hands-on operational delivery in a fast-paced manufacturing and distribution environment.
The Role
You'll be responsible for leading procurement across the business, ensuring products are sourced competitively while maintaining quality, compliance and supply continuity.
Working closely with Production, Sales, Finance and Operations, you'll drive cost efficiencies, improve supplier performance and develop robust procurement processes that support continued business growth.
