Buyer
London, Birmingham or Manchester – Full time
Working hours: Monday – Friday 40 hours per week.
We are looking for a Buyer to join the wider Care and Custody team to support in category strategy development, execution, and sourcing activity, ensuring supply chain solutions are fit for purpose, aligned to business needs, and represent lowest total cost, optimal service, and highest quality with relevant impactful supply base innovation.
You should be capable of working on complex high level sourcing activities and negotiations, identifying new and more competitive sources of supply, liaising with suppliers to resolve issues, manage and support a wide range of internal stakeholders as well as support on the development and delivery of annual targets and goals across cost and quality. You will also work on the roll out and maintenance of a new Supplier Management Program covering all strategic and preferred suppliers, reviewing current processes and procedures and identify areas for improvement.
The ideal candidate will have 2-4 years of procurement experience, showing evidence of considerable self-development, have excellent communication, negotiation and analytical skills and able to be accountable and dedicated to their work and the wider business goals. You will have a clear track record of stakeholder management with a focus on strategy implementation and have an ability to work creatively in a fast-paced environment. A CIPS qualification or equivalent is not essentially but desirable.
Our market-leading offering provides you with benefits that suit your lifestyle.
We have a virtual GP on hand for you and members of your household. So you can get expert advice by video or phone without having to leave your home. We offer financial wellbeing assistance through our Salary Finance scheme. For example, you could access 50% of your earned pay before payday for a small fee. Salary Finance also offers competitive loans.
When you join us, we’ll give you a link to our flexible lifestyle benefits platform, Choices. You might choose to purchase up to five extra days’ holiday each year. You might buy critical illness insurance, seek dental treatment or buy technology products at an affordable cost. There are many choices!
We give you access to high street discounts from thousands of well-known retailers, gyms and more through our MiDeals platform. And we have a cycle-to-work scheme. Life cover of up to four times your salary is available. We also offer enhanced pension contributions, a save-as-you-earn scheme, and a Mitie Matching Share Plan (you could even be awarded free shares in Mitie).
We award our employees with Mitie Stars as recognition for their hard work. There are cash prizes up for grabs each month and at the end of the year there’s a chance to scoop a top prize of £10,000!
