Help Build The Supply Chain Behind The UK's Energy Future

Most procurement roles support an organisation.

This one helps build an industry.

UK Fusion Energy (UKFE) is leading the delivery of STEP, the UK's prototype fusion energy plant at West Burton. Bringing together government, industry and world-leading expertise, the programme is helping establish the partnerships, supply chains and commercial foundations needed to support the future of fusion energy.

For procurement professionals who want to work on something with genuine purpose, opportunities like this are incredibly rare.

As Senior Buyer, you'll support procurement activity across a nationally significant programme, helping shape sourcing strategies, build supplier relationships and contribute to major commercial decisions within a complex and evolving environment.

Your responsibilities will include:

Strategic procurement activity
Supplier engagement and development
Sourcing and category strategies
Procurement governance and compliance
Commercial negotiations
Supporting major programme delivery
Building relationships across industry and the supply chain

We're keen to hear from Senior Buyers, Procurement Managers, Category Managers, Strategic Sourcing professionals and Commercial Procurement specialists from sectors including public sector, infrastructure, energy, utilities, defence, engineering and other complex environments.

Why Join?

The most exciting part of this opportunity is not where STEP is today.

It's where it's going.

The supplier relationships, procurement strategies and commercial frameworks being developed now will help shape the future direction of the programme for years to come.

Joining at this stage gives you the opportunity to influence how UKFE engages with the market whilst building your own career within a growing organisation that is expected to evolve significantly as STEP progresses.

Alongside a competitive package, hybrid working and an outstanding pension scheme, you'll gain exposure to complex procurement challenges and strategic decision-making that many professionals spend years trying to access.

Most importantly, you'll be part of a team helping create something bigger than any individual project.

You'll be helping lay the foundations for a future fusion industry.

Interested?

Opportunities like this do not come around every day.

If you're looking for a procurement role with purpose, long-term career potential and the chance to contribute to one of the UK's most ambitious programmes, I'd be delighted to tell you more.

Contact Will Taylor at Hays in Lincoln for a confidential discussion and a full briefing on the role, team and future opportunities within UK Fusion Energy, or apply today.
