Procurement Manager / Director - Food Manufacturing PA | Circa ~$200k + Bonus | You know that moment when a business finally decides procurement matters ? This is that moment. A ~mid-market food manufacturer with has been acquired, and the new ownership wants procurement to step out of the “reactive buying” shadow and into the “value creation” spotlight. They need someone smart, credible, commercially sharp - ideally with food manufacturing experience and bonus points for PE exposure. Someone who knows how to tidy up spend, build structure, and deliver savings without making a song and dance about it. What's on the table? A clean runway. A supportive CFO. A flat, grounded culture with zero time for ego. And a procurement function that's ready - for a leader who can modernise it. What you'll actually do Build proper sourcing discipline (finally). Bring visibility to spend, suppliers, and risk. Negotiate smarter, not louder. Reduce costs without reducing quality. Turn procurement into a function the business trusts - not tolerates. Who this suits A Manager or Director in food/CPG manufacturing who's been thinking.... “If someone just gave me the keys, I could build something better.” Someone who can influence in a down-to-earth, PE-backed environment. Someone who gets things done without relying on hierarchy or theatrics. Someone who enjoys being hands-on and strategic in the same afternoon. Why it's worth a conversation Because roles where you can set the direction, build the function, and see your work in the numbers don't come around often. Especially not in a business this size, with ownership this supportive, and a CFO who actually wants procurement at the table.
