Fancy taking on a newly created role working with an established business in a growing sector? One that offers you the chance to shape. mould and define processes, policies and procedures and coach, mentor and guide a team to become high performing? Know a thing or two about Public sector procurement but still want the commercial focus of a private sector business? The this should be right up your street...


What's on Offer?


  • Base salary of £62,000 to £65,000
  • Private Medical, Health Cash Plan, Income Protection and Life Assurance (4x basic salary)
  • Contributory Pension - 5% matched contributions
  • Professional qualifications funding
  • Hybrid working - 3 days in the office in Warrington
  • 25 days holiday plus statutory with the option to buy/sell up to 5 days


What will you be doing?


This is a newly created role leading a team of 11 (8 in central procurement, 2 in the central procurement data team and 1 leading compliance and quality) to support the Head of Procurement in the delivery of a first class procurement function. Despite this being a private sector organisation offering a range of procurement frameworks and consultancy services, the majority of your customers will be in the public sector, and with the upcoming public sector procurement reform you'll have the chance to shape and mould processes, procedures and the development of the customer portal to allow customers to better manage their spend. The central procurement team create and manage the frameworks for a wide range of categories, with the majority currently being on indirect areas such as office supplies, print, stationary, vehicles, anything that is needed from a back office/services perspective to run a business - mostly higher volume, lower value items. This is a relatively new team, either new to the business or recently stepped up into their roles, and is performing well, so leadership, motivation and support are going to be key to helping them develop further into a high performing team with a stronger focus on maximising the commercial position of the business whilst also offering great value to the customers. The central procurement data team analyse hundreds of thousands of pieces of data a month to create value opportunities for the customer - you'll be working closely with these analysts and the wider business to look for insights, create learnings for the customer and identify opportunities to commercialise the data and drive value across the board. You'll also work with the Head of Procurement compliance and quality to ensure any legislation changes, reform or other legal matters are correctly managed and reflected in processes and polices.


Who will you be doing it for?


You'll be joining a successful private sector consultancy business that works with a range of clients across the public sector, namely in the social housing sector, the NHS and local councils. They offer long term career development through formally recognised qualifications such as CIPS and a collaborative, inclusive culture. You'll be working for a very engaging and down to earth line manager who has bags of experience in this sector and will be on hand to help, mentor and guide you.


What do you need to bring to the party?


To be successful in this role it's expected that you'll be able to demonstrate the majority of the following skills and experience:


  • Proven experience in either a Head of Procurement, Procurement Manager or Category Manager level role
  • Excellent leadership and motivational skills - you'll be able to demonstrate how you've grown and developed teams previously
  • Analytical mind, able to interpret data and make strategic recommendations
  • Previous exposure to, or able to demonstrate a strong knowledge of, public sector procurement regulations/processes but also with a solid commercial mind - this will most likely come from those in a regulated but commercial environment such as utilities/rail/nuclear or those that have had exposure to both public and private sector businesses
  • MCIPS or equivalent would be advantageous but isn't essential
  • Demonstrable track record of savings delivery through negotiation


If the above sounds like the next step in your already successful career, and you’d like to learn more, apply today with a copy of your CV, LinkedIn profile or whatever you have for immediate consideration – every application is reviewed by a person, and everyone will get a response, it’s the least you deserve.
