Birmingham, United Kingdom Independent Office for Police Conduct Full time

Job Introduction

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) provides independent scrutiny of the police on behalf of the public. We ensure that officers who may have misused the power they have been entrusted with, are held to account. We also focus on helping the police learn when things go wrong, to improve policing for everyone. We look at systems and processes to share learning and insights which help strengthen the whole policing system.

Police forces deal with the majority of complaints against police officers and staff. We investigate the most serious complaints and conduct matters directly. These are often high profile cases of national interest.

The procurement function ensures that our commercial activity meets the standards set out in Government Functional Standard GovS 008: Commercial. The function is responsible for the management of commercial performance and contractual supplier management

There are five colleagues in the team. We are currently in the process of adopting hybrid working and moving support posts out of London. The successful applicant can work from any of our office bases out of London and may work remotely according to our Business Needs Framework, which specifies the relatively small number of activities which must be conducted face to face.

We will assess you on the following behaviours
- **Technical, experience and strengths**

**In addition to the questions you will also be scored against career history. Therefore please ensure your profile builder includes this information.**

Main Responsibilities
- Act as the principal procurement advisor to the Procurement Board, ensuring the Board is sighted on current and upcoming procurement, contracts management issues and planned service changes and improvements.
- Develop the IOPC procurement and contracts management strategy, setting out a three year plan to ensure we achieve best practice standards using creative thinking, commercial awareness, and experience to make well informed judgements and influential proposals.
- Ensure the IOPC meets the requirements of the Government Functional Standard 008, and that the IOPC is procuring in line with regulations, law and delegations from Cabinet Office and Home Office
- Ensure that the procurement pipeline is managed effectively

Qualifications:

- Full membership of the Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply (MCIPS), or equivalent professional qualification.

**Experience**:

- Evidence of improving procurement practice in a public sector environment.
- Evidence of managing all day-to-day procurement matters working to targets and timelines,
- Evidence of delivery of procurement projects that comply with public sector procurement policy and legislation
- Evidence of using data to highlight emerging trends and use this learning to support procurement delivery and decision making.
- Evidence of the ability to communicate your knowledge to senior managers and to develop these skills in the wider procurement team
- Demonstrable ability to manage non-performing suppliers to achieve their KPIs, working in accordance with our values

**Reasonable Adjustments**

About The Company
As a completely independent organisation, the IOPC seeks to uphold the rights of the public and investigate the most serious matters, including deaths following police contact, to promote learning and influence change in policing. The IOPC is an organisation steeped in history, influenced by significant figures such as Stephen Lawrence and Sir William Macpherson. We are looking for people to uphold our core values, and in return we will give you a supportive and inclusive work environment to flourish in.

**Be yourself**

The IOPC is committed to **promoting equality and valuing diversity** in everything we do. Our vision is to be, and to be seen as, a leader in inclusive employment and services, demonstrating this ethos in everything that we do.
- As a silver standard Stonewall employer, we continue to commit to being a LGBTQ+ employer through the work of our Pride LGBTQ+ Staff Network, creating welcoming environments for lesbian, gay, bi and queer people.
