Drive preferred supplier adoption and supplier performance improvements.

Improve working capital outcomes including payment terms and WADP.

Support IFM outsourcing and manage third-party vendor performance.

Drive office cost efficiency (cost per SQM / headcount).

Act as primary procurement lead for Africa, operating independently across markets.

Engage with stakeholders and external partners including distributors and agencies.

Ensure compliance with procurement policies, B-BBEE, and localisation requirements.

Support localisation and development of local suppliers and partners.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Business, Supply Chain, or related field.

8+ years of procurement or sourcing experience.

Experience managing multi-category spend portfolios.

Strong negotiation and supplier management experience.

Experience in Africa or emerging markets preferred.

Core Skills & Capabilities
