This Project Manager role will work on a major new initiative within one of the UK's favourite food retail business. Working on projects to reduce the cost base of the food group you will ensure capital is available to invest in future strategic growth projects.

You will have the opportunity to visit key suppliers and gain first-hand understanding of how projects will impact the food supply chain.

A key component of this role will be documenting and communicating the status of projects to the senior management team, delivering accurate details of potential savings.
