Arcadis is the world's leading company delivering sustainable design, engineering, and consultancy solutions for natural and built assets. With over 34,000 people in more than 30 countries, we are dedicated to improving quality of life by solving the world’s most complex challenges together.

As a Procurement Business Partner, you will provide strategic procurement leadership for regional projects, shaping sourcing, subcontracting, and contract management approaches. You will partner with delivery leaders to create commercial value, manage supply-chain risk, and improve supplier performance.

Your key responsibilities will include acting as the primary procurement partner for project teams and regional stakeholders, developing project sourcing and subcontracting strategies aligned with client and commercial requirements, leading complex negotiations, and overseeing contract variations, claims, and close-out. You will shape make-or-buy, sourcing, and commercial decisions using cost and market insights, drive value, margin improvement, and risk-reduction initiatives, and support bids and pursuits.

Building strategic supplier relationships and overseeing performance across cost, schedule, quality, safety, and contractual obligations will be essential. You will work closely with Service leadership to encourage early procurement involvement and align projects with category strategies and procurement frameworks. Collaboration with Legal, Finance, Risk, Sustainability, and operational teams is also a key part of this role.

Join Arcadis and contribute to delivering sustainable solutions for a more prosperous planet while creating a lasting legacy through your work.

About you
