Job Description
The Role
Category Manager to lead on all sourcing activity for your specific area of spend. The Category Manager will interface with all stakeholders in their strategic, critical business function to source requirements from new and existing vendors via contract renewals, extensions, amendments and/or full detailed competitive, multi-vendor process using our procurement tools.

The Team
TalkTalk Procurement is an exciting function managing third party spend. We are a small, dynamic, busy team, split by key categories of indirect and direct spend and we often find the biggest opportunities by working together. We work collaboratively with the business to really focus on the priorities where we add the most value, sometimes to meet short term needs but mostly to deliver on an overall strategy to meet business goals.
