**Job Details**
As a key member of our new 'Procure to Pay’ function the post holder will take the lead on the technical aspects of preparing contracts between the Joseph Rowntree Foundation and external suppliers. They will provide a highly professional internal service,helping colleagues to find the right solution for their contract management objectives, drawing in expert advice from procurement colleagues, legal advisors, and VAT experts on more complex projects, when appropriate.
We are determined to modernise our systems in the coming months so they are more efficient and user friendly both for colleagues and external partners.The post holder is expected to take a leading role in co-designing processes with internal and externalstakeholders.
There will be a focus on continuous improvement to ensure it is easy for third parties to contract with JRF, but we expect that in time the role will settle into a clearer rhythm once we establish the right systems.
**About you**
The role would be perfect for someone with a strong background in contracting processes and familiarity with contract documentation, standard terms, processes and administering grants. But just as important as technical skills are a strong client focus anda desire to build systems that both protect the integrity of the process while being easy to use for participants. This is likely to become a fast
- paced role, and it would suit someone who is very organised, good at building relationships and is curious aboutthe work of the organisation and keen to understand what we are trying to achieve through our relationships with our partners.
