What we need from you
At IHG, we’re looking for someone who not only has the technical expertise to excel in the role but also the right mindset to thrive in a complex, fast-paced, and ever-evolving global environment. We are a global matrix, and success here isn’t just about knowing the "how" – it’s about understanding the "why" and adapting to change with a proactive, solutions-driven approach. We need a strategic thinker who can navigate through complexity, build relationships across borders, and make decisions with agility.
Equally important is a genuine passion for procurement and a true desire to contribute to the success of the business. You’ll need to bring a forward-thinking mindset, always seeking ways to innovate and improve performance. If you’re motivated by challenges, eager to shape the future of procurement, and ready to bring your expertise to an industry leader, this role is for you.
To excel in this role, you’ll bring:
- Relevant experience in procurement policy, sustainability & risk management, or both; however, specific sustainability experience is not a pre-requisite for the role.
- Experience within a franchise or complex organisational environment, engaging with diverse stakeholder groups.
- Confident in collaborating across the organisation to drive progress on the Responsible Procurement agenda.
- Strong understanding of responsible business-related risks and opportunities.
- In-depth knowledge of procurement processes, systems, and controls.
- Ability to influence colleagues and navigate a matrix organisation effectively.
- Excellent prioritisation, organisational, and time management skills.
- Proficient in Microsoft Office applications.
- Exceptional communication skills.
