About the role
It is an exciting time to join our Procurement division as a Procurement Administrator/Adviser. You’ll be involved in the roll out of an exciting new Purchase to Pay (P2P) system which will massively improve the service to our internal customers.
You will become an SME (subject matter expert) in the system, offering coaching/training to users where needed, and addressing questions submitted to the mailbox.
We use a wide range of systems in procurement and on top of this new implementation you will also gain expertise in all our systems. You will be a key part of the team, making sure the systems align, completing due diligence for suppliers, ensuring compliance, and analysing trends to understand why problems occur.

- Collaborate with various teams to resolve system issues
- Provide guidance and advice to the business on policies, procedures, processes, and best practice

- Experience using Microsoft Office applications
- Analytical skills in Excel
- Experience of conducting administration tasks across various business systems
