Interim Procurement Manager
Billingham
6 Month Fixed Term Contract
£ Dependant on Experience
If you’re commercially sharp and experienced in leading procurement functions, this is a great opportunity to make an impact at a global technology leader.
You’ll step into a key role for an initial 6 month fixed term contract, taking ownership of procurement operations and leading a small, capable team through a period of change and delivery.
The Role & Responsibilities
As Interim Procurement Manager, you will:
- Lead and manage a small procurement team, ensuring effective people management, development and support.
- Oversee the full procurement cycle, from supplier selection and negotiation to contract management.
- Drive cost optimisation, risk management, and supplier performance improvements across categories.
- Partner with stakeholders in engineering, operations and R&D to ensure procurement is aligned with business needs.
- Support ongoing projects and contribute to longer-term procurement strategy development.
- Ensure compliance with internal policies, external regulations, and ethical standards.
We’d love to hear from you if you have:
- Proven procurement management experience within engineering, manufacturing, oil and gas, or related sectors.
- Strong people management skills with the ability to motivate and lead a small team.
- Solid negotiation and supplier management expertise.
- Experience of delivering savings and improvements while maintaining supplier relationships.
- Confidence in working cross-functionally and influencing senior stakeholders.
- MCIPS qualification (or working towards) would be beneficial, but not essential.
This is an excellent interim opportunity to join a global business with innovation at its core, where your expertise will help shape the procurement function and support critical projects.
