INTRO

We’re on a mission to make low-cost travel easy – and whatever your role here, you’ll connect millions of people to what they love using Europe’s best airline network, great value fares, and friendly service.

The Procurement Team at easyJet manages a significant portion of our total external spend, covering Customer, Operations, Commercial, Business, Corporate, Finance, People, and IT. We are a dynamic team focused on delivering value, supporting business growth, and ensuring our partners help us achieve our ambitions.
THE ROLE
This is a permanent role within the Procurement Operations team, responsible for shaping, embedding and continuously improving Supplier Management and Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) across easyJet.
You will take ownership of finalising and evolving frameworks, translating policy into clear ways of working, and supporting the business through adoption and change.
A key focus will be on using the Ivalua platform to operationalise Supplier Management and integrate third party risk activity throughout the supplier lifecycle, while recognising that both process and tooling will continue to mature.
You will provide visibility and assurance to senior leaders, including the Airline Management Board and Audit Committee, ensuring supplier performance and risk are appropriately governed in line with regulatory expectations.
