TransUnion Job Title Consultant, Strategic Planning
A senior fresh produce procurement role with real ownership of supplier programmes, margin, quality and availability. Senior Procurement Manager - Fresh Produce London Hybrid working: 3 days on-site, Tuesday to Thursday 70,000 - 80,000 DOE + 5,250 car allowance + 15% bonus + benefits The Opportunity This is a senior procurement opportunity with a leading global fresh produce business, focused on securing reliable, commercially strong supply programmes across fresh produce categories. The role will suit someone who understands the pace and pressure of fresh produce. You will be working with growers, suppliers and internal teams to make sure the business has the right supply, at the right quality and value, while protecting margin and service. This is not a back-office procurement role. It is supplier-facing, commercially accountable and closely linked to sales, operations, technical, logistics and finance. You will need to be confident managing market movement, crop conditions, supply risk, negotiation and category performance. There will also be some overseas travel, typically a handful of times per year, linked to suppliers, markets and industry activity. Key Responsibilities Build sourcing plans and secure reliable supply programmes across fresh produce categories. Manage grower and supplier relationships, including negotiation, contracts and commercial agreements. Monitor crop conditions, market trends and supply risks to support buying decisions. Own category performance, with a focus on sales, margin, profitability, quality and availability. Work closely with Sales, Operations, Technical, Logistics and Finance to support customer requirements. Coach and develop Commercial Executives or wider team members where appropriate. What We're Looking For You will need proven buying, procurement or commercial supply experience within fresh produce. The strongest fit would be someone with experience across fruit, berries, salad, vegetables or another large fresh category. Imports, international growers or supplier programme experience would be useful, but the key requirement is strong fresh produce commercial judgement. You will need to be comfortable with supplier negotiation, market volatility, margin ownership and cross-functional working. This would not suit someone from a purely indirect procurement background or a highly corporate procurement role with limited exposure to fresh, seasonal or commodity-led supply chains. Why Join? This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants a senior role in a serious fresh produce environment, with genuine ownership of supplier relationships, category performance and commercial returns. You will be joining a business with scale, brand strength and a global supply base, but the role itself is still close enough to the action to make a visible impact. For someone who enjoys the challenge of fresh produce procurement - balancing quality, availability, cost, margin and supplier performance - this is a role with real substance. If you're interested in learning more, we'd be happy to have a confidential conversation.
