Buyer, Senior Buyer, Procurement Officer

An exciting opportunity to join the procurement function of this non-for-profit organisation. With offices in Norfolk, this role offers hybrid working with 2-3 days per week in the office. The role profile can be moulded to suit candidate experience with the opportunity to recruit at a junior/procurement support level or at a more specialist/officer level. This new role would suit a Buyer / Procurement Officer or Manager looking to harness their experience or an up-and-coming procurement professional looking to develop their skills further.

You will help ensure best value is achieved for the business, meet business and departmental targets/cost improvement; track performance of deals and demonstrate best value and review and negotiate supplier agreements. The production of monthly reports to track procurement activities and the benefit achieved is a key part, as is the building of effective business relationships with internal stakeholders to coach and advise on procurement matters.

The ideal candidate will: be part CIPS qualified, although this is not essential; have proven ability in developing effective working relationships through strong interpersonal skills; excellent negotiation skills; demonstrable experience of supporting the procurement of goods and services with a record of delivering savings against budgets; and a high level of communication skills, both verbal and written. With high levels of autonomy, CIPS support and scope to develop within the procurement function, this role constitutes an excellent development prospect.
