About the Role
It’s an exciting time to join Redmayne Bentley. After recently celebrating our 150th year in business, we are entering the next stage of our firm‑wide strategy — building on our strong heritage while continuing to evolve, improve and invest in the future.
Our Finance team is looking for a Procurement Manager to lead the development and implementation of a consistent, scalable procurement approach across Redmayne Bentley.
This is a newly created role within our Finance department, responsible for strengthening supplier governance, improving value for money, and ensuring effective oversight of sourcing, contracting, supplier performance and renewals across the firm.
You will work closely with colleagues across Finance, Risk, IT Security and operational teams, acting as a trusted colleague to support procurement decisions while balancing commercial, service, regulatory and information security considerations.
This is a role where someone with experience and a great team ethic can thrive and make a noticeable impact to our aims and mission. Within our close-knit firm, you will not be a small cog in a much larger wheel – you will be valued, appreciated, and respected for your skills as well as rewarded by a firm that truly cares about its colleagues and their wellbeing.
