Our residents trust us to deliver high quality, value for money services every day, across our borough. In today's financial climate, it's a bigger challenge than ever. That's why we need a Procurement Analyst with the technical expertise to provide vital management insight. Here, your skills won't just be valued and recognised. They'll also make a real difference to local public services.
Your main task will be to help the Council make better commercial decisions. With your expert analytical skills, you'll provide the insight and management information we need to make the right choices and shape our procurement strategy. You'll also see that our procurement systems are robust, up-to-date and legally compliant. And through research and benchmarking, you'll make sure that we're always at the forefront of procurement best practice. Responsible for technical input into our Purchase to Pay (P2P) process too, you'll be an essential member of the team.
Degree-qualified (or equivalent) with a keen eye for detail, you'll be an experienced analyst who can work with complex data. Using outstanding analytical and ICT skills (including experience of financial management systems), you'll turn large volumes of information into simple, intelligible insight. You'll have expert knowledge of e-procurement and P2P process, matched by strong communication skills and an organised approach. Able to deal with diverse stakeholders and prioritise your workload, you'll be a talented professional who's keen to make an impact.
Join us, and you can expect a range of benefits including pension, flexible working, season ticket loan, childcare vouchers and discounts with local retailers. We'll also give you every opportunity to build an exciting career with development opportunities.
