Pret works a little like a restaurant. We build kitchens in every shop. We don’t use ‘sell-by’ dates because at the end of every day we offer our unsold food to charity rather than keeping it to sell the next day. We love making fresh, delicious food, and our milk and coffee is 100% organic. Our people are the key to our success, so we are keen to give all of Team Pret the opportunity to develop which ensures the right training, development and support for our wonderful people.
Pret is looking for a Buyer to support the US Buying team (part of the wider Food & Coffee team), who will take responsibility for the strategic sourcing of specific ingredients and packaging for Pret’s menu. This person will report to the Senior Buying Manager.
Pret US is in a period of major transformation as we reposition ourselves for profit growth post pandemic with continued revenue growth of new digital channels but also geographical expansion across North America. Through taking the lead on fostering strong supplier relationships, this role will be essential to ensuring our suppliers are engaged and ready to support Pret as we transform and grow.
This position will involve specific responsibility for shaping and managing Pret’s buying strategy to meet quality standards, brand values, availability, and cost requirements through the effective and ongoing management of the supply base. The role will work closely with other members of Pret’s Food, Supply Chain and Launch teams (QA, Safety, Food Development, Supply Chain & Logistics) to deliver the Food Plan.
The role includes wider commercial responsibility to maximize the sales and profit from Pret’s assortment and optimize the menu to achieve Pret’s food innovation priorities and commercial budget requirements.
