We strongly believe in the value that diversity brings to our experiences and are committed to the perpetual enhancements of initiatives, policies, and practices. We hold ourselves accountable by providing the space for authenticity, growth, and equity for everyone.

What you’ll do

Our Performance & Technology (P&T) team works with healthy, under-performing as well as distressed companies. We serve several industries and often work in private equity settings. We work side-by-side with top management and focus on a wide range of client challenges, including revenue & growth, operations, supply chain, organisational transformation, and sourcing & procurement.

As a part of this role, you will be involved in driving procurement-led cost-saving and transformation programmes. We get directly involved in shaping sourcing strategies and delivering savings through technical levers, demand management and leveraging the supplier market, including negotiating with the suppliers. Although it will be your primary focus, your role will not be limited to sourcing & procurement.

This is an exciting time to join a rapidly growing team. From day one, you will get a chance to deliver real impact and work with clients when it really matters.
