Are you a commercially driven Procurement professional looking to make a real impact across a diverse and business-critical services portfolio?
At apetito, we are looking for a Procurement Manager to lead sourcing and supplier management across key service categories (indirect) including HR Services, Business Support Services, Travel and Utilities.
This is a fantastic opportunity to influence both strategic and operational spend, working closely with stakeholders across the business.
