Ready to play your part?

Working with key stakeholders to ensure the speedy resolution of queries.

Who are we looking for?

We are seeking an Assistant Category Specialist with previous experience as a Buyer, working within a procurement function, ideally in a category-led team. Candidates should have an understanding of category management and procurement processes, with exposure to indirect spend areas such as IT or professional services, would be beneficial.

User of electronic purchasing systems (e.g. Oracle and information management tools).
Able to adapt method of communicating to a range of stakeholders.
Preference for working in a highly regulated, compliance-driven environment.
Proactive approach, tackles issues before they become problems.

We are able to support candidates working towards CIPS membership or looking to start their training, as part of your ongoing development plan.

Work hard, be rewarded:

We ask a lot and set the bar high because our work truly matters. In return we offer balance, with award winning benefits including:

9-day working fortnight – meaning you get every other Friday off work, in addition to 270 hours of annual leave.
Market leading contributory pension scheme (we will pay between 9% and 13% of your pensionable pay depending on your contributions).
Family friendly policies: Maternity Leave - 39 Weeks Full Pay and Paternity Leave - 4 Weeks Full Pay.
Opportunities for Professional Career Development including funding for annual membership of a relevant professional body.
Employee Assistance Programme and Occupational Health Services.
Life Assurance (4 x annual salary).
Discounts – access to savings on a wide range of everyday spending.
