The Opportunity
We're looking for a Procurement Manager to lead procurement for our new hospitality projects, including new restaurant openings and hotel refurbishments, from concept through to opening. Reporting to the Head of Procurement – Hospitality, Corporate Services and Marketing, you'll partner with our Development, Design, Property and Food & Beverage teams to source and buy F&B and OS&E (operating supplies and equipment). You'll make sure every project opens on budget, on schedule and in line with our brand standards.
This is a newly created role where someone can come in and drive the function.

- Work with Development, Design and Project teams to turn design specifications and brand standards into accurate procurement scopes and budgets
- Run sourcing events, tenders and quoting processes for F&B and OS&E, evaluating suppliers on cost, quality, delivery and brand compliance
- Negotiate commercial terms with suppliers and contractors, and find opportunities to consolidate suppliers across concurrent projects
- Track spend against project budgets with Finance and Cost Control, report on variances, and keep purchase orders, trackers and supplier records up to date
- Manage supplier lead times and deliveries, escalate risks to project timelines, and visit project sites, trade shows and showrooms to source new products
What You'll Bring
- 5 years' experience in procurement or purchasing, ideally supporting hotel, restaurant or hospitality fit-out and pre-opening projects
- Demonstrated experience sourcing F&B, FF&E and/or OS&E for construction, refurbishment or new-build projects
- Strong financial acumen, with experience managing project budgets, purchase orders and supplier reporting
- Proven negotiation and supplier relationship skills, and the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels
- Highly organised, with the ability to manage multiple concurrent projects to tight deadlines and strong attention to detail
- Solid IT and data analysis skills using procurement or project management systems. A degree in Business, Commerce, Economics, Finance or Project Management is desirable
