Job Description
Procurement Manager - ITAD Industry

Milton Keynes, On-site
Base Salary + Commission (Performance-Based)

About the Role

Our client, a fast-growing ITAD company, is seeking an experienced Procurement Manager to lead their global sourcing operations. You will take ownership of procurement strategy, manage supplier relationships worldwide, and drive margin and inventory performance across Europe, the U.S., and APAC.

This is a hands-on role for a senior procurement professional with 8+ years in ITAD or IT hardware, proven team leadership experience, and strong OEM/distributor relationships. You will source slow-moving or excess inventory, negotiate terms, and optimize global supply chains.

Key Responsibilities
  • Lead and manage the procurement team to meet sourcing, cost, and inventory targets
  • Develop and maintain supplier relationships across Europe, the U.S., and APAC
  • Source slow-moving or excess inventory with high resale potential
  • Negotiate pricing, terms, and contracts to maximize margins
  • Align inventory with market demand in collaboration with operations, sales, and logistics
  • Monitor market trends and supply risks
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Take ownership of a global procurement function for a fast-growing ITAD business
  • Performance-driven pay: more contribution = more reward
  • Influence global supplier strategy, margins, and inventory decisions
  • Work with an international team and gain exposure across Europe, APAC, and the U.S.
