[job_card.job_description]

Procurement People are currently partnered with a leading operator in the hospitality sector to find a Category Manager to work across Maintenance, Repair and Operations categories.

The organisation is scaling at pace and are therefore investing in their procurement capabilities to drive efficiency, sustainability and innovation across their supply chain. This is a high-impact, standalone Category Manager role within a leading national multi-unit business.

The Category Manager will manage large Maintenance, Repair and Operations portfolios. This role requires an entrepreneurial self-starter with experience in strategic procurement who can execute autonomously without direct reports, but within a team with earmarked roles.

Key Responsibilities :

  • End-to-end contract and supplier management (QBRs, SWAT analysis, supplier risk)
  • Strategic sourcing, micro bids, spot bids
  • Driving supplier diversity (minority-owned vendor engagement)
  • Executing against aggressive spend targets

Key Experiences :

  • 5–7 years in strategic procurement (preferably in MRO or similar categories)
  • Hospitality, restaurant, or multi-unit background with progression shown
  • Strong stakeholder management and negotiation (operator-savvy personality)
  • Analytical proficiency – data (BI tools, pivot tables, cost modelling) contract familiarity – managing renewals, T&Cs, service levels
  • This is a unique opportunity for a commercially-minded procurement professional to join at a pivotal point in the company's growth and play a key role in shaping how critical categories like Maintenance, Repair & Operations are strategically managed.

    Package : Salary – Up to $135k

    Holiday - 2 WEEKS PAID TIME OFF - 7 OR 8 HOLIDAYS
