Associated British Foods is a diversified international food, ingredients and retail group with sales of £13.9bn, 133,000 employees and operations in 53 countries across Europe, Africa, the Americas, Asia and Australia.

Being the CPO of a global Group involves bringing that operation together and creating cohesion, a vision and of course delivering value for the business.  But how does a CPO make that happen across such a large geography and extensive procurement team?

We're delighted to welcome Gerry Tominey, Chief Procurement Officer, AB Foods to the virtual fireside chair to give us insight into life in such an influential global role.


In this session you'll discover:

  • What career path can take you all the way to group CPO
  • What the similarities and differences are between the CPO and a Group CPO roles
  • What the biggest challenge is to bring together procurement teams based in different locations and countries
  • How procurement has changed over the last decade and where it might be in 10 years
  • How you can stand out when you’re applying for a new role
  • The one thing you should do today to help you be more effective in your procurement work
