We have 2 exciting permanent, full‑time opportunities for experienced Senior Procurement Specialists to join our Finance, Procurement & Legal Division.

The Finance, Procurement & Legal Division provides critical corporate support across financial management, procurement, legal services, governance, and general affairs, including property and infrastructure management. The division plays a key role in protecting Toyota's interests, ensuring compliant and efficient operations, and enabling the delivery of the company's strategic objectives.

The Senior Procurement Specialist is responsible for developing and managing procurement strategies to effectively support the business in achieving its objectives. This includes optimising supplier selection, governance, and supplier mix, with a focus on customer centricity, quality, value, sustainability, and compliance. The role ensures procurement activities strike an appropriate balance between strong governance and commercial outcomes, embedding sustainable spend management practices that drive efficiency, competitiveness, and long-term organisational resilience. Acting as a trusted advisor, the role promotes collaboration across functions and with suppliers to drive innovation, manage risk, and deliver sustainable value.

As part of Toyota's Procurement Shared Services, the Senior Procurement Specialist also partners closely with stakeholders across Toyota Finance Australia (TFA) to design and deliver procurement solutions aligned with strategic business objectives.

Both roles are based in Port Melbourne, with regular travel required to our Altona North office. Flexible working arrangements are available. Additionally, both roles will require fortnightly travel to our Sydney office.
