Job Details

An industry-leading consultancy is recruiting a Procurement Officer to join its continually growing organisation.

This is a company that offers nationwide procurement support to the education sector, advising various schools and Multi-Academy Trusts on cost savings, improving best practices and ensuring compliance in their work.

This is a ‘feel good’ role where the work you do will be making a real difference to the educational outcomes of the pupils these organisations look after.  

As Procurement Officer you will report directly to the MD and work on a number of exciting and important procurement projects across various indirect categories.

Some of the key responsibilities expected of the Procurement Officer:

  • Produce a wide variety of professional, high quality and Public Contracts Regulations 2015 compliant procurement documents
  • Create high-standard, detailed but easy to understand post-project Procurement Audit Reports for clients (based on existing templates)
  • Liaise with customers and suppliers as required
  • Coordinate bid diaries/timelines to ensure tender deadlines are met
  • Create letters, reports and spreadsheets as required
  • Follow up supplier references in a professional manner
  • Consistently review all tender documentation to improve usability from both an internal and external perspective
  • Ensure up-to-date knowledge in all aspects of Public Contracts Regulations 2015 public sector procurement regulations

Experience in regulated procurement would be desirable, however, the company will consider individuals that are looking to develop and grow their knowledge.

To succeed as Procurement Officer you will need the right attitudes and behaviours. Equipped with a desire to go above and beyond; your work will have a big impact on your clients and therefore you should take pride in it.

You will be dealing with some complex documents and consequently will need a keen eye for detail and be analytically minded.

If you think you have got what it takes then apply for the position today.

This is a great opportunity for a hardworking and meticulous individual looking to develop further experience in a procurement-based role.

The company is growing and so there are opportunities for advancement!
