Basingstoke, United Kingdom Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council Full time

About Us

Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council is committed to ensuring that our borough continues to be a great place to live; providing quality opportunities for everyone that lives and works here.

The Councils procurement service helps support the Council in delivering our key priorities: a place where people can have pride in their borough, protecting, restoring and enhancing our environment and continuing to be a council that delivers high-quality services for our residents.

We have an exciting opportunity to join our procurement service as a Senior Procurement and Contracts Officer. This is an important role helping to deliver quality and cost-effective procurement support services on strategic and high risk / value tenders, allowing the council to provide top quality, value for money contracted services and purchased goods for residents.

Reporting to the Procurement and Contracts Manager you will provide procurement support and advice collaboratively across the Council and at all stages of the procurement cycle. You will also support the Manager in the implementation of a new Procurement Strategy and the upcoming Procurement Act, as well as helping the procurement team develop policies and practices in areas such as social value, local suppliers and supporting the Council’s climate agenda.

The Senior Officer role includes line management responsibility for the procurement apprentice and support officer roles; and the successful candidate should therefore be keen and enthusiastic about helping to develop staff in progressing their future careers in public procurement.

Our procurement activities must be conducted in a fair and transparent way, complying with relevant UK procurement legislation and best practice. It is therefore essential that the post holder has substantial experience of the tendering process; from start to finish, within public sector procurement and a strong knowledge and understanding both the current public procurement legislation but also an awareness of the future implications of the Procurement Act 2023.

The postholder should have the ability to prioritise and organise their own busy workload as the procurement team provides support to all council teams. The Senior Officer will be required to lead and manage their own procurement projects and experience in leading both open tenders and the use of framework agreements is essential. The successful candidate should have a ‘can-do’ attitude and work well as part of a team; both as representative of the procurement service but also actively contribute to the wider goals of the Law and governance business unit.

If you are interested but would like to see more information about the team and our responsibilities, please see the ‘Our Story – BDBC Procurement’ document.
