About

We're looking for an experienced Sourcing Manager to join a dynamic procurement team in a leading UK financial services organisation!

This is a high-impact contract role focused on redesigning and improving sourcing processes, rather than running traditional procurement events. You'll play a key role in shaping how sourcing is delivered across the organisation-driving efficiency, consistency, and regulatory compliance.

The Role

You'll join a team responsible for the design and continuous improvement of sourcing processes (the "Sourcing Product"), working closely with procurement, risk, and business stakeholders.

Key responsibilities include:

Supporting the redesign and optimisation of end-to-end sourcing processes within a regulated environment
Contributing to the development of process maps, templates, and guidance materials
Working with stakeholders to improve user journeys and sourcing efficiency
Supporting change delivery and implementation across sourcing tools and workflows
Using data and feedback to identify continuous improvement opportunities
Engaging with procurement systems including SAP Ariba and ServiceNow

What We're Looking For

Strong procurement / sourcing background, ideally across multiple categories
Experience working in a regulated environment (financial services highly desirable)
Proven track record in process improvement, transformation, or operating model design
Experience with SAP Ariba (or similar e-sourcing platforms)
Ability to work in Agile or change-driven environments
Strong stakeholder engagement and communication skills

Why Apply?

Opportunity to work on high-visibility procurement transformation initiatives
Role focused on process design and innovation, not just BAU sourcing
High exposure across procurement, risk, and business teams
