  • Represent the relevant Category and/or Senior Management Team, if appropriate, on influential internal and external groups, where this demonstrably enhances the status of, and benefits to, the organisation.

Essential Skills:

  • Full Membership of the Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply (MCIPS) or a relevant degree or have significant procurement management experience and be making progress towards formal membership.
  • Good communication skills and sensitivity.
  • Presentation skills to deliver project and other management reports and recommendations for improved practice.
  • Good analytical and computing skills, accuracy, and attention to detail, ability to develop performance monitoring and benchmarking and analyse databases and spreadsheets.
  • Aptitude for dealing with complex issues and limited budgets, reorganising priorities, and multi-tasking on concurrent projects in a frequently changing environment.
  • At least 3 and preferably 5 years' experience delivering a relevant procurement service including an extensive range of commodities, showing knowledge appropriate to this high-value, technically diverse environment.
  • Personal credibility and ethics; capacity and confidence to manage projects and deliver change with aptitude for developing and implementing policy.
  • Understanding customer service and key performance indicators in a devolved environment.

Desirable Skills:

  • Experience in public or regulated sector is preferred but not essential, plus knowledge of applicable legislative framework.
  • Direct experience of implementing new initiatives is an advantage, demonstrating examples of responsiveness and successful introduction of change.
  • Senior Stakeholder Management experience.
  • Experience of delivering strategic projects.
  • Knowledge of the Higher Education sector.
