Category Manager - Gaydon, United Kingdom - Aston Martin
Description
ProcurementThis is an exciting time to join Aston Martin as we're going through a period of change that you'll lead your designated procurement team through. You'll need to have the courage to navigate through business change whilst demonstrating your strategic experience.
To be successful in this role, you'll need to have trust in your team and be highly resilient. You should have strong people skills, emotional intelligence, and be able to read the room. Bringing people on a journey and following processes effectively will be key aspects of this role. Previous experience in a mature role within an established procurement function is essential, as well as knowledge of different procurement target models.
Working with a team of individuals in this role, you'll be responsible for building and developing category plans, engaging with stakeholders at a senior level, and translating strategy into sourcing plans. You will need to have the unity to mentor and upskill your team, as well as the ability to negotiate contracts with suppliers and evaluate negotiations.
You're not interested in a role where you are guided through every step and looking for an established and organised environment. In this role, you'd relish the opportunity to shape and build the function from the ground up and create your legacy within the company.
Your remit would be to excel in this role and be excited by the challenges it presents. This role is strategic and requires trust in your team and the courage to drive change.
The Key Requirements...
At Aston Martin, we have a rich brand history that we are proud of. We are committed to openness and fostering a family feel within the company. For over 110 years, Aston Martin has been known for the breadth of exposure it provides and the incredible performance sports cars it produces.
Here at Aston Martin, our mission is to become the world's most desirable ultra-luxury British brand. By joining Aston Martin, you'll be part of a business that is dedicated to ownership and helping us work towards our goal. We believe in a culture of openness and shared ownership, where every individual plays a vital role in shaping the future of the company.
As we embark on this exciting new era for the business, we need the very best people to join us in our journey. Your future within this role holds great opportunities for growth and development. This is a unique opportunity where you already have senior-level buy-in, and you'll work alongside the CPO and Director who strongly believe in our vision.
People stay with our business because of the openness and ownership they feel within the company. Aston Martin is an employer of choice known for its brand history and the exciting opportunities it offers to its employees.
This is a hybrid role with 3 days at our Gaydon site and the other 2 days from home. For the right candidate, we can offer flexible start and finish times and we are open to discussing what works best for you and the business.
