I am currently recruiting a Category Specialist to support the Marketing category for a Global FMCG business.

This role will partner closely with Marketing stakeholders and support sourcing activities across agency services, media, events, brand activations, point-of-sale materials and wider marketing expenditure.

Experience required

• Experience running RFQs, RFPs and sourcing exercises
• Experience evaluating supplier proposals and developing commercial recommendations
• Strong stakeholder management skills
• Contract and supplier management experience
• Comfortable working with non-procurement stakeholders

Experience in one or more of:

• Marketing Procurement
• Creative agencies
• Media agencies
• Shopper marketing
• Brand activations
• Promotional materials
• Events procurement

You will either have Indirect procurement experience and be keen to learn the marketing category or you might come directly from agencies in commercial, procurement, vendor management or a supplier-facing role

This is an excellent opportunity to join a global FMCG brand in their fast paced forward thinking procurement department.
