Full Job Description

We’ve been proudly serving Australian communities since 1914 and have grown to become a top 30-listed company on the ASX with a portfolio of iconic homegrown brands. At the heart of our continued success is over 115,000 team members working across the country, all contributing to bringing our customers smiles. You’ll not only get to see your work make a difference, you’ll be part of a team working together to help Australians eat and live better every day.

About the team

From baby food to coffee blends, our team members use their passion and innovative thinking to develop and deliver Coles’ own brands of quality products and best value solutions for our customers.

About the role

We’re looking for a Strategic Sourcing Manager to lead a high-impact sourcing function and deliver meaningful value across our Own Brand portfolio. This role plays a critical part in driving commercial outcomes, improving margin performance, and supporting long-term business growth through best-in-class sourcing practices.

Reporting to the Head of Better Buying, you’ll lead a team of sourcing professionals and partner closely with senior stakeholders across the business to deliver strategic sourcing initiatives, strengthen supplier relationships, and unlock significant cost and value opportunities.

You’ll also:

Lead and execute a strategic sourcing roadmap delivering substantial cost savings and value creation
Drive margin improvement through data-led insights, benchmarking and supplier strategy
Partner with Own Brand and business units to align sourcing strategies with category growth plans
Build and lead a high-performing sourcing team, embedding best-in-class processes and tools
Champion continuous improvement, leveraging technology and AI to optimise sourcing outcomes
Strengthen stakeholder engagement across Commercial, Finance, Supply Chain and Sustainability
Drive governance, reporting and accountability across sourcing performance and KPIs
Lead complex commercial negotiations with suppliers across multiple categories and markets

About you and your skills

You are a commercially astute and forward-thinking leader who thrives on delivering tangible business impact. You bring a strong balance of strategic thinking and hands-on execution, with the ability to navigate complexity and drive results through people, partnerships and data. You’re passionate about building capability, challenging the status quo, and continuously improving the way sourcing delivers value to the organisation.

You’ll also ideally have:

Tertiary qualification in Business, Commerce, Marketing or related discipline
Extensive experience in procurement, sourcing and commercial strategy
A proven track record of leading large, complex negotiations and delivering value
Experience leading high-performing teams in fast-paced, dynamic environments
Strong commercial acumen with a relentless focus on value and margin improvement
Experience embedding new tools, technologies or transformation initiatives
A proactive, solutions-focused approach with high levels of resilience and adaptability
Strong governance mindset with an eye for detail and compliance

What’s in it for you?

Flexible working options: We know that work is only one part of your life, so we actively encourage a positive work-life balance and provide hybrid working options to help you achieve it.
Office perks: Take advantage of our gym facility and fitness classes, free parking, BBQ area, mini-Coles supermarket, fooderie hub where you can sample new products before they hit the shelves, school holiday program and so much more when you come in.
Discounts: Eligible team members receive 5% discount all year round on your Supermarket and Liquor online and in-store purchases. We also offer additional periods of double discount (10%) at various times throughout the year. As well as hotdeals exclusive to team members that translate into additional savings.
Reward through recognition: Give and receive recognition, linked to our Coles values, through our digital recognition platform ‘mythanks’. You can accumulate points to redeem in the online shop for exciting gifts and electronic gift cards from an extensive range of retailers.
Opportunities for learning and development: No matter where you start within our diverse business, you’ll have experiences, exposure, and education to satisfy you. Discover and explore a variety of career development programs and job-specific training.
Paid parental leave: We understand how important your life outside work is and offer permanent team members paid parental leave to support you in balancing work and family.
Investment in your future: Our annual team member share plan offer allows eligible team members to make regular pre-tax salary sacrifice deductions to purchase Coles Group shares.

About the recruitment process

We’re continuing to build a gender equitable team, and a culture that is just as diverse, inclusive and welcoming as the communities we serve. We are committed to creating a workplace that is safe and respectful for our team. We encourage applications from people of all ages, cultures (including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples), abilities, sexual orientation and gender identities.

We’re happy to adjust our recruitment process to support candidates with disability. For further information and additional contact details visit the ‘Our Recruitment Process’ section of our careers site or email [email protected]
