Senior Technology Category Manager
Gigaclear
Date: 7 hours ago
City: Abingdon
Salary:
£65,000
-
£70,000
per year
Contract type: Full time
This is a newly created role. Technology & Networks is Gigaclear's largest, most complex and highest-risk spend category — covering network equipment, connectivity, IT hardware and software, and managed services.
Note: this is a hybrid role, with 1-2 days a week working in our Head Office in Abingdon, Oxon.
Our full-fibre network keeps expanding across England, and our customer base is growing each year. Our technology estate has grown just as fast, and we now require an experienced Category Manager to drive its strategy forward.
You will own the Technology & Networks category end to end through building and executing a multi-year category strategy, leading complex sourcing events and negotiations, and turning today's supplier landscape into a consolidated, cost-effective, value-adding one — then managing it from there.
Beyond the category itself, you will play a strategic role in reducing commercial and contractual risk across Gigaclear's supplier relationships and supporting the critical technology transformation programmes that will shape the business's next phase of growth.
Gigaclear is a growing Fibre Broadband (FTTP / FTTH) company, developing our fibre-to-the-premises broadband infrastructure to some of the most difficult to reach areas of the UK, empowering those communities with broadband to rival any city.
Staff Rewards, Benefits And Opportunities
We foster a collaborative, engaging culture that empowers staff to grow and maximise their skills. We want to challenge our people in a fair environment where hard work is rewarded and a path for progression is open to all.
Our Mission - Empowering communities with brilliant broadband
Our Vision - Connected Communities
Our Values - Own it, Find the Right Way, Work Together, Win Together
