About The Role

Are you looking for a role where you can shape how essential housing services are delivered and make a real difference to residents? We’re looking for a proactive and ambitious Procurement and Project Officer to join our Housing Property Services team at Islington Council.

This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in delivering high-quality, value-for-money services that directly support our repairs and maintenance operations. Working at the heart of service delivery, you’ll help ensure contracts are well planned, procured, and mobilised to support a responsive and effective housing service.

In this role, you will:

Support and lead procurement activities across a range of housing property services, ensuring strong planning and delivery throughout the life-cycle
Develop and maintain procurement strategies and programmes to ensure continuity of critical service contracts
Work with service managers to shape specifications and define requirements ahead of tendering
Coordinate procurement processes from initial planning through to mobilisation, ensuring compliance with council and legislative requirements
Drive improvements in procurement practice, promoting value for money, quality, and social value outcomes
Monitor risks and ensure procurement processes are robust, transparent, and audit-ready

What we’re looking for

Experience of delivering procurement activities, ideally within a public sector environment
Experience supporting or delivering projects, including planning and coordination
Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
Understanding of procurement processes and contract management principles
Knowledge of housing, repairs, or maintenance services (desirable but not essential)
Ability to analyse and present complex information clearly
Strong written communication skills, with the ability to develop specifications, reports, and plans
Excellent interpersonal skills and the ability to work effectively with a wide range of stakeholders

About the team

You’ll be part of the Programme Management Team within Housing Property Services, working closely with the Programme Manager and colleagues across repairs, and compliance. The team plays a vital role in ensuring procurement activity is well-governed, strategically aligned, and supports the council’s wider objectives for residents.

At Islington, we’re committed to tackling inequality and delivering high-quality services. You’ll be joining a collaborative and forward-thinking environment where your work will directly contribute to improving homes and services across the borough.

Working for the team, service and our organisation

Islington is a place rich with diversity and culture. As a council our sense of purpose couldn’t be clearer: we serve. It’s in the logo. We are committed to challenging inequality in the borough and as one of the largest employers we know that to look after the place and the planet, we have to look after our people. Together we can change the future.

We are determined to create a more equal Islington, where everyone who lives here has an equal chance to thrive.

To do this, everyone who works at Islington Council lives by a set of values which guide us in everything that we do: collaborative, ambitious, resourceful, and empowering. They spell out ‘CARE’, which is what we think public service is all about.

Our offer to you

We are committed to challenging inequality in the borough and as one of the largest employers we know that to look after the place and the planet, we have to look after our people. Our staff benefits include:

Up to 31 days leave per year, increasing to 36 days after five years of local government service
A range of flexible working arrangements to maintain a healthy work-life balance, as well as a 35-hour working week
Learning and development opportunities to maximise your potential
Competitive pay and a commitment to paying all staff the London Living Wage at minimum
Excellent local government pension scheme
Cycle to Work scheme and discounted gym memberships
Local discounts from restaurants, shops, health and beauty therapists, and more!

Please note: Priority will be given to those at risk of redundancy within Islington Council. Current employees who are part of the redeployment pool must meet the essential criteria for shortlisting to be prioritised.

Workforce Equality, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Statement

We are dedicated to creating an inclusive and equitable workforce, where everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Our workforce strategy places equality, equity, diversity, and inclusion at the heart of everything we do, reaffirming our commitment to fostering a culture of inclusion. We strive to create an environment where all colleagues feel they belong and can safely express their thoughts, ideas, and challenges, without fear of judgement or discrimination.

We maintain a zero-tolerance approach to any unlawful discrimination, harassment, or victimisation on the grounds of any protected characteristics under the 2010 Equality Act, including but not limited to race, disability, sexual orientation, sex, religion and belief, age, gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy, and maternity. Any incidents of discrimination will be promptly investigated and addressed in line with our HR policies to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for all colleagues.

We use data to identify and address disparities, ensuring that our policies and practices are transparent and impactful in promoting a diverse representation of backgrounds and perspectives at all levels of the organisation. We look at inequality through an intersectional lens, recognising that different aspects of someone’s identity can combine to create unique experiences of discrimination and disadvantage.

We know that advancing diversity and inclusion is a continuous journey, and we must listen to our colleagues and learn where we can further improve. We work closely with our Colleague Forums and Trade Unions, supported by active allies from our Corporate Management Team, to monitor and evaluate our practices, identify barriers, and empower colleagues to promote equality and inclusion in the workplace.

Every one of us has a role to play in making Islington Council a truly inclusive workplace. By living out our CARE (collaborative, ambitious, resourceful, and empowering) values every day and embedding the principles of equality, equity, diversity, and inclusion in our work, we can all actively contribute to empowering people and creating a more equal Islington.

Proof of address
Evidence of any name changes (if applicable)
Right to work in the UK

Safeguarding

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults, and expects all staff, and volunteers to share this commitment. Some posts are subject to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (Amendment) (England and Wales) Order 2020 and it will be necessary for a submission for Disclosure to be made to the Disclosure and Barring Service.
