Senior Procurement Manager - Energy & Power

"High Profile Strategic Career Breakthrough Opportunity"

£Very Competitive Bonus Car Allowance Blue Chip Benefits Hybrid UK Role

You've already made an impact in energy or fuels procurement. You're managing complex supplier relationships, maybe influencing hedging conversations. But your career feels stuck - no movement, too much red tape, and no real ownership.

If you're looking for your first step into a true strategic leadership role, this is it.

We're working with a global market leader in industrial materials and infrastructure, with a procurement function undergoing major strategic transformation. This role offers you the chance to take full commercial ownership of a £500m Energy & Power category, and to operate at the heart of the business - not the sidelines.

What You'll Do

In this role, you'll report directly to the UK Procurement Director, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with senior Finance, Operations, and Sustainability leaders. You'll have full scope and ownership over:

  • Procurement of electricity, gas, bitumen, liquid & solid fuels
  • Hedging strategies and market timing
  • Supporting renewable and self-generation delivery (solar farms, battery storage, CPPAs)
  • Leading supplier engagement and strategic contract negotiations
  • Presenting market risk insights and recommendations to the MD and CFO
  • Contributing to cross-border energy steering group

The business operates within a matrixed, non-hierarchical structure, so you'll gain exposure to regional and global stakeholders across Western Europe - and be encouraged to drive change, not just manage processes.

About You

You may be a Category Manager, Senior Buyer, or Procurement Lead working in:

  • Energy, utilities, or power
  • Chemical, industrial, construction, or manufacturing sectors
  • A large, complex matrixed organisation with formal procurement structures

You'll bring:

  • Deep interest or experience in energy, electricity or fuels procurement
  • Strong commercial instincts and analytical mindset
  • The confidence to step up and take ownership in a senior, visible role
  • Passion for sustainability and supply resilience
  • Ambition to grow into a European or global role within 3-5 years

What's On Offer

  • Bonus
  • Full hybrid working policy
  • A platform to elevate your career into strategic procurement leadership
