What you’ll do…
In this role, you’ll be an important part of the team, supporting the Procurement Systems Manager and the wider Commercial Services function to keep our procurement activity running smoothly across Forestry England and the Forestry Commission.
You’ll help look after our Tail-End Spend processes, making sure our procurement systems work well and that purchasing rules are applied consistently. Because this area involves lots of small, everyday purchases, your work will be varied — one moment you might be speaking with suppliers, the next you could be reviewing spend data or helping colleagues with system queries.
Everything you do will help us get good value for money, continuously improve how we work, and strengthen the way we buy goods and services across the organisation. It’s a great opportunity to learn, grow, and make a real difference in how our teams operate day to day.
Please see the job description below for more information and details about what we need from you.
