Full job description

Job description

Terms and Conditions: 2x Full time, Permanent, 37 hours per week
Department: Resources
Interview date: w/c 3rd August 2026

Our Procurement function plays a vital role in ensuring public money is spent responsibly, transparently and in a way that delivers value for money, social value and strong outcomes for the borough. We work closely with services across the Council to deliver compliant, effective and proportionate procurements, support contract management, and help shape commissioning decisions. Collaboration, commercial awareness and a commitment to continuous improvement sit at the heart of what we do.

About the Roles:

We currently have 2 Contracts and Procurement Officer vacancies within our corporate procurement function. One role will be working on procurements within the resources portfolio and the other within Growth and Development.
These posts are focused on supporting and delivering public sector procurement activity across a range of goods, services and works categories.
It is not a purely administrative purchasing role; it requires professional advice, stakeholder engagement, tender management and a strong understanding of compliance and governance.

The purpose of the roles is to provide procurement advice and support to services across the Council, helping them to plan and deliver compliant procurement exercises, achieve value for money, manage risk and contribute to wider strategic objectives including social value and sustainability.
You will work closely with category managers, commissioners, and service managers to develop and prepare tender documentation and deliver procurement activities

What you’ll be doing:

Supporting end-to-end procurement activity, from early market engagement and route-to-market planning through to tender evaluation, award and contract mobilisation
Providing clear procurement advice and guidance to internal stakeholders on legislation, governance, standing orders and best practice
Preparing and managing tender documentation, evaluation models, procurement timetables and using the Council’s e-procurement systems
Working directly with service areas to develop specifications, evaluation criteria and commercially sound procurement approaches
Working with category managers to identify opportunities for efficiencies, value for money , added value, social value and sustainable procurement outcomes across the Council’s spend
Maintaining an up-to-date understanding of public procurement legislation and ensuring all procurement activity is transparent, compliant and properly documented

These roles involve regular engagement with internal stakeholders, suppliers and professional colleagues and requires confidence in managing competing priorities while maintaining high standards of governance and customer service.

Whether you are already working in a procurement role or looking to build on relevant public sector or commercial experience, we are keen to hear from candidates who are committed to high standards, continuous improvement and delivering positive outcomes through procurement.

If you would like an informal discussion regarding this role, please contact [email protected] or [email protected]
