Creation of PO’s through the Financial system to provide compliance to policies and procedures
Create and maintain auditable and transparent records and reports to meet internal and external management information and compliance requirements.
Process new supplier requests received from colleagues within EMR ensuring the Procurement Policy is adhered to and existing contracts are utilized.
Management and Governance of the contracts database to ensure that contracts remain valid, and any contractual breaches are identified and resolved.

…and many more!

Frontline Support Requirement If you're successful in this role, you'll be expected to support our frontline colleagues at some points throughout the year. This might be undertaking safety critical work, for which you'll receive training, but it could just be helping out with Customer Service when our stations are busy. We're One Team, and that means our managers step up for the frontline, not just manage from a distance. Supporting frontline colleagues is part of our DNA at EMR.

EMR has a hybrid working policy which is applicable for this role. Should you wish to work full time in the office this is also an option.
