Chief Sourcing & Procurement Officer

About the Role

We are seeking an outstanding Chief Sourcing & Procurement Officer (CPO) to lead and transform procurement across our large-scale, complex financial services organisation.

This high-profile executive role carries responsibility for enterprise-wide procurement strategy, oversight of significant Opex and Capex budgets ('000s m), and the management of mission-critical supplier relationships — including contracts exceeding €100M.

The successful candidate will be a strategic leader and change agent, ensuring procurement delivers exceptional value for money, supports corporate goals, drives innovation, and upholds the highest standards of governance, compliance, and sustainability.

This is a unique opportunity to shape procurement & sourcing into a strategic value driver, delivering cost efficiency, resilience, supplier excellence, and sustainable growth in one of the most dynamic sectors in the market.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the development and execution of a comprehensive procurement and sourcing strategy aligned to business objectives.
  • Manage large-scale Opex and Capex portfolios with a focus on cost optimisation, rate card management, and long-term value creation.
  • Oversee strategic supplier relationships, including Tier 1 vendors with contracts over €100M+.
  • Negotiate high-value agreements, ensuring commercial advantage while maintaining operational resilience.
  • Drive procurement transformation through digital enablement, data-driven decision-making, and process excellence.

About You

  • Senior executive procurement leader with experience in large financial services organisations (15,000+ employees).
  • Proven track record managing multi-vendor portfolios with significant contracts over €100M.
  • Expertise in strategic sourcing, cost optimisation, and rate card management.
  • Skilled in contract negotiation, governance, and supplier performance management.
  • Strong leadership presence with the ability to influence at C-suite and Board level.
  • Committed to ethical, sustainable, and socially responsible procurement.

How to Apply:

Please send your CV and a short executive statement highlighting your relevant scale of responsibility (organisation size, Opex/Capex managed), major contracts (including €100M+), setting up frameworks, and two transformation achievements.
