Major acquisition. Complex integration. A chance to make your commercial impact count.

A leading international banking group is entering a significant period of change following a major UK acquisition-and Procurement has a compelling opportunity to help unlock the value.

Alongside a wider technology transformation, the integration creates scope to consolidate suppliers, challenge existing contracts and harness greater buying power. For an ambitious IT Procurement professional, it's an opportunity to influence meaningful change and deliver results that matter.

The opportunity

Develop category strategies aligned with technology priorities and global colleagues.

Lead complex sourcing projects and negotiate commercially robust contracts.

Identify savings and wider value throughout the contract lifecycle.

Build stakeholder relationships and influence sourcing decisions.

Strengthen supplier performance across cost, quality and compliance.

Support financial planning, forecasting and budget management.

What you'll bring

Proven Technology or IT Services procurement experience within a global organisation, strong negotiation skills and confidence managing complex contracts. You'll combine commercial judgement with financial insight and the ability to influence stakeholders.

Financial Services or regulated-sector experience is advantageous, as is CIPS qualification.

Why make the move?

A substantial transformation agenda, international exposure and the opportunity to help turn acquisition scale into commercial value. The package includes 30 days' holiday plus bank holidays, private medical insurance and a £6,000 annual car allowance.
