    Full time
    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 Category Manager will work autonomously to establish their pipeline of work, agree all routes to market and confirm alignment to the TalkTalk roadmap.

    The Team

    TalkTalk Procurement is an exciting function managing third party spend across the consumer unit. 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.

    Key Responsibilities

  • All procurement projects within assigned category.
  • Full and detailed spend and budget review.
  • Pipeline planning and maintaining for all requirements.
  • Using and maintaining all the procurement engagement tracker, contract database and sourcing tools for their area of spend.
  • Applying the category management principles, whilst focusing on priorities.
  • As a recognised Top 50 Inclusive Employer in the UK, we know that diversity means success and innovation. We want our workplace to reflect the communities and customer we serve. Being inclusive is part of our DNA; we are all 100% human, and we create a culture where you can truly be yourself.

    We're also not your usual 9-5. We are a dynamic workplace and we want to talk to you about how you like to work.
