Supply Chain Manager

The Opportunity

Our client is a well-established commercial fit-out contractor delivering projects across the UK. Operating with a collaborative, team-led project model, they are now looking to appoint a Supply Chain Manager to strengthen supplier engagement and enhance overall project delivery performance.

This role will play a key part in shaping how subcontractors and suppliers are selected, managed, and developed across the business.

  • Track market conditions, availability, and trends to ensure best value decisions are made

  • Work closely with internal stakeholders including Quantity Surveying, Estimating, and Delivery teams

  • Allocate suppliers and subcontractors strategically across key projects

  • Monitor supplier performance, setting clear expectations and measurable KPIs

  • Use data and performance insights to drive continuous improvement initiatives

  • Lead commercial discussions and negotiations to achieve optimal outcomes without compromising quality or programme

About You

  • Proactive and self-driven, with the confidence to challenge and improve existing ways of working

  • Strong communicator who can build credibility with both internal teams and external partners

  • Commercially astute, numerate, and comfortable working with data and performance metrics

  • Experienced within construction, fit-out, or a related supply chain environment

  • Relationship-focused, with the ability to foster trust and long-term partnerships

  • Resilient and comfortable working in a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment

  • Highly organised, with excellent attention to detail

  • Problem-solver with a solutions-led mindset

  • Passionate about sustainability and ethical supply chain practices

Why Apply?

This is a key role within a growing, financially stable fit-out business where the supply chain function has genuine influence over project success. You’ll have the opportunity to shape strategy, work closely with senior stakeholders, and leave a lasting impact on how the business collaborates with its supply partners.
