Procurement at Lancaster has undergone significant transformation in recent years. The team continues to expand its reach and is forward-thinking in its approach to managing the full range of Purchase to Pay and Source to Contract activity for the University's non-pay expenditure of around £100m per year.

A wide variety of categories are managed including Laboratory Supplies & Equipment, Travel, IT, Construction, Maintenance, and Business Support Services. Procurement at Lancaster is a well-established and mature function. We score highly on the sector-wide best practice procurement indicators and set stretch goals to continuously improve. This is a large and ambitious team within a people-focused organisation providing opportunities to progress and develop including supporting team members to achieve CIPS qualifications.

The role of the procurement team is to manage the university's expenditure with external suppliers. This includes sourcing, tendering, contracting and supplier management.

Working closely with other members of the operational procurement team, you will provide a high level of support to our diverse academic and research departments.

You will have effective numeracy, literacy and word processing skills and be able to present information relating to the progress of work.

You will be required to have excellent communication and interpersonal skills. You will be trained in procurement and will learn to provide procurement advice in accordance with the University's Financial and Procurement Regulations. You need to be a team player and able to work with other colleagues in our travel and accounts payable team, providing assistance during busy periods for any of the three areas of the purchase to pay function.

We operate hybrid working and this role can be effectively delivered from home with a minimum of 3 days a week in the office. Requests for part-time working will be considered.
