• Partner with internal stakeholders to understand business needs and become a trusted procurement advisor.
• Develop and execute sourcing strategies that drive competitive advantage, cost optimisation, and sustainable value creation.
• Lead sourcing projects and harmonisation initiatives using the 7-Step Sourcing Process.
• Identify opportunities to reduce total cost of ownership and deliver value beyond cost throughout the supply chain.
• Negotiate and manage supplier contracts to achieve optimal commercial outcomes.
• Drive supplier performance through Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) programmes.
• Develop and implement risk management strategies to mitigate supply market volatility.
• Lead European sourcing and tender activities to secure financial benefits and high service levels.
• Deliver best-in-class procurement projects that support supply chain excellence across Europe.
• Monitor sourcing initiatives, procurement projects, and savings delivery against targets, ensuring accurate reporting.
• Champion sustainability initiatives across the supplier base and contribute to CCEP's environmental and business goals.
• Explore innovative sourcing opportunities and develop new sources of supply to strengthen category performance.

## What We're Looking For:

To be successful in this role, you'll bring:

• Proven experience within procurement, strategic sourcing, or supply chain management.
• Strong project management and change management capabilities.
• Excellent analytical skills, with the ability to assess opportunities from both commercial and strategic perspectives.
• Strong influencing and stakeholder management skills, with the confidence to engage effectively with senior leaders.
• A proactive, ownership-driven approach and the ability to take accountability for category performance.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Fluency in English.
