Newbury, Berkshire | Hybrid

Your new organisation
A global leader in digital transformation is expanding its cloud communications portfolio and seeking a commercially astute strategist to lead a major international initiative. Renowned for delivering scalable, compliant and commercially impactful solutions, this organisation is driving the next wave of cloud-based communication services. As part of a significant global rollout, they are launching a new cloud number offering across 80 countries and are now looking for a Buying Manager with deep expertise in wholesale voice to lead the commercial engagement with operators.

Your new role
This is a strategic, commercially focused position, not a procurement function. You will be responsible for managing complex B2B commercial contracts with global telecom operators, specifically focused on procuring voice InterconnecT services and number access. Your role will involve negotiating and securing InterconnecT agreements, shaping the commercial terms for voice traffic and driving the buying and selling of minutes across international markets. You will work closely with Tier 1 carriers and wholesale voice providers to ensure the successful delivery of a globally scalable solution. Your influence will extend across pricing strategy, margin optimisation and volume forecasting, all while building strategic partnerships with key players such as BICS, Tata Communications, iBasis and others. This is a rare opportunity to lead from the front, shaping how businesses establish local presence and scale communications worldwide.

What you need to succeed
To thrive in this role, you must bring proven experience in commercial contract management within the wholesale voice industry. You will have a strong track record of working directly with telecom operators, negotiating voice InterconnecT services and managing the commercial dynamics of international carrier relationships. Your expertise should include the buying and selling of minutes, commercial strategy development, and a deep understanding of virtual numbers and global telecom regulations. Candidates with hands-on experience working with Tier 1 carriers, such as BICS, Tata, iBasis, Orange or similar, will be prioritised. You must be a confident communicator, capable of influencing stakeholders and driving complex initiatives across multiple regions. Strategic thinking and executional precision are both essential.

What you need to do now
If you have the wholesale voice expertise we're looking for and are ready to lead a global cloud communications initiative, click 'apply' to submit your CV. For a confidential discussion, reach out directly. We are actively seeking candidates with deep experience in carrier voice commercial management and strong operator-side contract negotiation skills. If you've worked with BICS, Tata, iBasis or similar, we want to hear from you. This is your opportunity to shape the future of global voice.
