Overview
Procurement is about helping the business buy the right goods and services, from the right suppliers, at the right value and with the right contractual protections.
The Dunelm Procurement team influences over £350m of spend across the business. In simple terms, this team buys the goods and services Dunelm needs to run effectively, including:
- Technology and software
- Marketing and agency services
- Logistics and parcel carriers
- Store equipment and fixtures
- Construction and facilities
- Professional services
This is not a stock buying role and does not involve purchasing products for resale.
Sitting within Finance, the team plays a critical role in supporting Dunelm’s growth by delivering value for money, supporting major business projects and helping to manage commercial risk.
As a Procurement Graduate, you’ll get exposure to a wide range of categories and stakeholders, building commercial, analytical and negotiation skills from day one. With structured development, hands-on experience and support towards your CIPS qualification, this is a great opportunity to start a career in a fast-moving, business-critical function.
This role could suit someone who enjoys problem-solving, working with people, analysing information and making commercially sound decisions.
