*Current right to work in the UK required*

Exclusive Logistics Category Manager opportunity with an expanding, global, multi-£bn manufacturing that is currently undergoing a major logistics transformation to consolidate spend at a national level. Currently, hundreds of sites are largely conducting their own tenders. You will take ownership of the £100m+ logistics procurement category, play a key role in driving this transformation and manage relationships with senior stakeholders including MD, FD, SLT etc. Driving ESG will also be a huge focus of this role.

To be suitable, the client is looking for:

  • Candidates that have managed logistics spend in the tens of £millions (ideally upwards of £80 million, >£100m desirable), ideally with the larger logistics suppliers/carriers
  • Ideally 4-5+ years of relevant experience across both logistics and procurement
  • Experienced influencing senior stakeholders, up to MD level

There is a positive work culture and progression opportunities which I can personally vouch for having placed over 50 candidates into their procurement and supply chain teams across the UK, Europe and the US.

The role is fully remote, with occasional travel to suppliers/sites and offers a competitive salary plus bonus, car (or car allowance) and broader benefits.

If this is of interest to you, please apply ASAP.
