Description

• About us: Wifinity was founded in 2007 to solve a problem—our armed forces were struggling with reliable connectivity. While living in barracks, often in remote locations, ordering a landline and booking in an engineer just wasn’t an option. And that problem isn’t exclusive to the military, either. Students living in University accommodation, families visiting holiday resorts, or living in shared accommodation and retirement communities. Conventional home broadband doesn’t always work for them. Wifinity is different. We offer the same benefits as traditional broadband, such as super-fast speeds, WiFi, and secure and private networks, but none of the downsides. We even offer Pay As You Go and flexible contracts, so customers only pay for what they need without hefty penalties or long contract terms. We take the complexity out of connectivity. • The opportunity: We seek an experienced technology & telecommunications Supply Chain Manager to join our program team to deliver fully managed broadband internet access services in the later living sector at over 1600 locations over the next five years. We need a passionate, high-performing individual to ensure our current and future vital suppliers consistently deliver, adhere to contracted terms and minimise costs. The supplier portfolio includes site installation of structured cabling & active network equipment, network equipment manufacturers, hardware distributors and carriers. The successful candidate will need to be comfortable working in a matrix organisation to ensure the supply chain for the program operates consistently and delivers on time, to budget and the required specification. Your passion for providing excellent supplier relationship development and your strong interpersonal and leadership skills will help us ensure that we are consistently delivering exceptional services for our customers and, especially, their end users. As a critical part of our program, you will be working with stakeholders across our program management, delivery, purchasing, connectivity, logistics, legal and finance teams to act as a single point of ownership for the program supply chain. • Key areas of focus: Joining our program team and working in partnership with the broader Wifinity team, you will be responsible for the performance of all the direct suppliers for the program. • Working as part of our team • Quality Driven • About you: You will be a hungry, energetic individual with a real passion for delivering excellence and enthusiasm to be part of an evolving Procurement team. You value creating solid relationships and can engage with people from all levels. You put the customer at the heart of everything you do and enjoy working as a team to deliver excellent outcomes.
