Procurement Officer

Procurement Officer, London EC3, Permanent Role, Hybrid Working Included, Up to £45,000 + 10% + Great Benefits, Fantastic Company & Culture

Great Procurement professionals don't just place orders... they create opportunities.

Every great organisation is built on smart decisions.

The right suppliers.
The right commercial partnerships.
The right Procurement strategy.

If you're a Procurement Officer who enjoys taking ownership, building relationships and making a genuine commercial impact, then this could be the career move you've been waiting for.

We're looking for an ambitious Procurement Officer who wants far more than another purchasing job. This is an opportunity to become a trusted Procurement professional, influence business decisions, work closely with senior stakeholders and build a long-term career within a highly respected international organisation.

If you enjoy Procurement, love solving problems and take pride in delivering outstanding commercial outcomes, we'd love to hear from you.

The Opportunity

As our new Procurement Officer, you'll take ownership of Procurement activities from initial request through to supplier selection, purchasing, contract completion and ongoing supplier management.

Working alongside an experienced Procurement Manager, you'll gain exposure to every stage of the Procurement lifecycle, giving you the perfect platform to develop your Procurement career into Senior Procurement, Category Management or Strategic Procurement in the future.

No two days will ever be the same.

One day you'll be managing software Procurement.

The next you'll be analysing supplier spend, supporting commercial negotiations or helping improve Procurement processes across the organisation.

If you love variety, responsibility and continuous learning, you'll thrive here.

What You'll Be Doing

As Procurement Officer you'll be responsible for:

Managing Procurement requests from initial enquiry through to purchase order and contract completion

Acting as the first point of contact for Procurement queries across the business

Producing Procurement reports and analysing supplier spend

Identifying opportunities to reduce costs, improve efficiencies and strengthen Procurement processes

Promoting Procurement best practice across the organisation

What We're Looking For

You'll already have experience within Procurement, Purchasing or Supply Chain and be ready to take the next exciting step in your career.

You'll probably have:

2-5 years' Procurement, Purchasing or Commercial experience

Experience managing Procurement activities from beginning to end

Experience supporting supplier sourcing exercises including RFQs and supplier comparisons

Excellent organisation and attention to detail

Strong Excel and reporting skills

The ability to build relationships with stakeholders at all levels

It would also be fantastic if you have:

Experience within IT Procurement

Experience analysing supplier spend

Exposure to regulated business environments

Why Join?

This isn't simply another Procurement Officer position.

It's an opportunity to become part of a collaborative international business where Procurement is recognised as a genuine commercial function.

You'll be encouraged to develop new skills, take ownership of meaningful projects and continuously improve the way Procurement supports the wider organisation.

If you're someone who enjoys learning, embraces responsibility and wants your Procurement career to keep moving forward, you'll feel right at home here.
