If so, this could be the perfect opportunity for you
I'm looking for an experienced pharmaceutical procurement expert to join this global brand on a permanent basis. With tens of global R&D sites and a varied product portfolio including general and speciality medicines, and vaccines, you will join the procurement function of a business that is truly at the heart of changing the future for the better.

**Here are some more details on the role**:
- You will own, develop, and execute the short, mid and long-term category strategy for your specific materials portfolio, developing supplier resilience and competitive advantage whilst achieving cost savings and driving innovation and sustainability solutions.
- You will partner closely with global site procurement teams to develop strong consumer stakeholder relationships, ensuring they always have the relevant materials whilst challenging and influencing their business requirements to be more efficient.

- You will continually develop and manage a diverse global supplier base, ensuring consistent supplier quality, assurance, regulatory compliance, and service alongside driving cost savings and creative innovation.
- You will market yourself internally as the go-to expert within your category - proactively developing your knowledge and expertise whilst remaining abreast of relevant market news, intelligence, and data.
- You will partner with broader manufacturing, supply chain and finance teams to enable creative efficiency and innovation activities.
**To succeed in this role, you will have**:

- End-to-end procurement and supplier management experience within a highly regulated, single-source environment.
- Expertise in proactively developing and managing key stakeholder relationships within a complex and dispersed environment, alongside influencing and persuasion skills to insight change.
- Ability to develop and manage key strategic global suppliers, including managing tiered governance, operational and strategic procurement and value creation activities within a highly regulated environment.
- An analytical mindset and a keen eye for detail, familiar with conducting spend analysis and reporting activities and then using these to inform strategic plans and roadmaps.
- A results-driven attitude, focused on proactively solving problems and working in close conjunction with your suppliers and stakeholders to drive forward progress.
