Procurement Manager – FMCG
Artemis Human Capital are delighted to be recruiting for a Procurement Manager on behalf of a well-established FMCG business operating in the fresh produce sector.
This is a senior, hands-on role suited to someone who has come up through FMCG fresh produce procurement and understands the pressures of a fast-moving, seasonal, perishable-goods environment. You’ll take full ownership of the category, from grower relationships and budgets through to cold storage and seasonal planning.
The Role
Reporting to the Managing Director, you will be responsible for the end-to-end procurement of a core fresh produce category, including:
- Profitably sourcing and procuring product to meet volume requirements and budget targets
- Managing settlements and agreed budgets (volume and price)
- Overseeing cold storage deals and cold store utilisation
- Forecasting and planning requirements against sales forecasts
- Managing seasonal peaks (Christmas, summer, etc.)
- Participating in grower reviews and supporting grower development alongside the Agronomy team
- Representing Procurement in senior meetings and contributing to company strategy
- Providing accurate, up-to-date reporting on market conditions, costs, and performance
Leadership & People Management
- Full accountability for the performance and efficiency of the procurement department
- Setting KPIs and SMART targets, and reviewing performance against them
- Managing, developing, and supporting your team, including training, appraisals, and day-to-day people management
- Contributing to workforce planning and recruitment alongside HR
Health, Safety & Quality
- Ensuring procurement activities meet food safety, food hygiene, and health & safety standards
- Understanding product and customer specifications to maintain quality throughout the supply chain
- Supporting a safe, well-maintained working environment
What We’re Looking For
- Proven procurement experience within FMCG Fresh Produce
- Strong commercial and budget management skills
- Experience managing grower or supplier relationships
- Confidence operating at a senior/strategic level while staying close to operational detail
- Strong people management and leadership skills
- A flexible approach to hours, given the seasonal and customer-driven nature of the business
