Paul Gattenby (MCIPS)

A strategic and highly commercial senior sourcing professional with a wealth of technical and commercial skills acquired through a career of demanding roles spanning financial services, advertising, technology, education and manufacturing industries. My ability to quickly connect with stakeholders has supported delivery of significant value across a wide range of indirect and direct categories including recruitment (perm and non-perm), training, healthcare, pensions, consultancy, professional services, legal services, credit risk, debt and asset recovery, lending control, travel, expenses, software acquisition and licensing, print and stationery. Able to ‘hit the ground running’ in areas of current expertise as well as supporting new category areas meeting both stakeholder and corporate objectives. Whilst at Lloyds I have supported the formation of a new JV (Schroder Personal Wealth), putting in place multiple contracts to enable them to stand alone, including a wealth management platform (SaaS), Workday (Finance, HR and Procurement), Flex Ben's, ID&V solution and Recruitment Agencies.
