Would you like to use your Procurement skills for the greater good?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a dynamic IT Procurement Manager to play a starring role in a major Procurement transformation within a not-for-profit in the Sussex area.

The newly appointed Procurement Transformation Director is driving a bold change agenda, and shaping the existing Brownfield function into a lean, keen, strategic machine. This is not a one-person job - he needs your support.

While the role is initially offered as a 12 month FTC, there is a high likelihood of extension, and the right candidate could even secure a permanent position.

If you thrive in a fast-paced, fluid, unstructured environment, and would like to work for an organisation that gives something back to the community, apply now.

Key Skills & Experience:

  • Minimum 5 years' Procurement experience, including category expertise in IT Software, Hardware and Professional Services (Telco also desirable)
  • Sufficient familiarity with Technology to gain buy-in from the CIO
  • Capable of performing Procurement activities autonomously, including running a comprehensive RFx without the use of a P2P system
  • Personality and communication are key. You will be reporting to the Procurement Transformation Director, who wants someone similarly enthusiastic, personable and silver tongued.
