This fast-growing construction consultancy is responsible for some of the largest construction and engineering projects around the world. Their reputation for procurement excellence has facilitated steady and consistent growth and they are now looking to expand their team, taking on multiple procurement professionals, including many Procurement Consultants.

From wind farms and dams to hotels and airports, my client is offering the opportunity to gain extensive end-to-end exposure across high-value projects. Such exposure is an invaluable resource, which accelerates the traditionally slow procurement progression structure, with previous candidates moving into Senior Consultant positions within 18 months.

As a procurement consultant you will strive to support the implementation of innovative procurement solutions, striving to reduce costs and maximise efficiency. In doing so you will:

• Use your commercial insight to identify potential opportunities for growth and engage with key stakeholder to develop procurement transformation plans.
• Building and maintaining relationships with key stakeholders within various blue-chip clients, to fully understand their vision for continuous improvement.
• Supporting the delivery of a range of traditional strategic procurement activities - including but not limited to, supplier analysis, contracting and negotiations, contract management and supplier relationship management.

Procurement Consultant Requirements:

• Good exposure to end-to-end strategic procurement, within the construction or engineering space. This would ideally have been acquired through working on large scale procurement projects.
• Broad working knowledge and experience with NEC/FIDIC/JCT contracts.
• A strong academic record (Degree and CIPS qualification) is desirable, but not essential.

This is the perfect opportunity for an ambitious procurement specialist with a desire to streamline their procurement career through delivering on high-value projects, within a world-renowned consultancy firm.

This is a hybrid role, where you will be based 2 days a week (or as many more as you prefer) at their office in Bristol, and the rest from home.

Procurement candidates must have full rights to work in the UK and be 100% business fluent in English.
