Lead Buyer – IT Procurement
Based in Stevenage
Salary from £45,000 - £55,000
Still buying stationery and services when you'd rather be buying AI, cyber and high-performance computing?
This is a Lead Buyer role covering the full IT spend, enterprise software, engineering software, SaaS, cyber, networks, hardware, security, AI, HPC, the works. Real category breadth, real ownership, and the room to specialise or broaden as you go.
You don't need to tick every box. If you're an established IT Buyer with MCIPS ready for the next step, come talk to us. If you're an Indirect Buyer who's never worked IT but wants to, we'll help you get there, including support toward MCIPS.
What you'll actually be doing: running large procurement projects, working with teams across the UK and Europe, and building relationships with stakeholders and suppliers who take procurement seriously, because in this business, they have to.
Hybrid working (2-3 days a week on-site), quarterly team meetings that rotate between UK, Germany, Italy and Paris, and a package that includes bonus, overtime, flexi-leave, up to 14% pension contribution and a genuinely flexible approach to how and where you work.
British citizenship is required for security clearance purposes.
If IT procurement with proper scope and international reach sounds like your next move, or even just an interesting conversation, get in touch. No pressure, no pitch, just a chat about whether it's worth exploring.
