We are proud to be working exclusively with Bracknell Forest Council to recruit a Procurement Officer position for the People & Communities directorates.
In your role as a Procurement Officer with the Council you will be supporting cross-functional teams to develop new contracts, delivering clear service improvements and real cash savings. You will advise commissioners on procurement and contract management issues and deliver above threshold and strategic procurements, ensuring compliance with relevant legislation and contract standing orders.
You will be a highly adaptable individual, looking for a challenging and rewarding role within a very supportive team environment. You'll be personable and self-motivated with excellent verbal and written communication skills and the ability to build strong and positive relationships internally with your stakeholders.
