- Onboarding and setting up new suppliers, including database administration
- Acting as a key link between the procurement team, suppliers and internal stakeholders
- Supporting low value tender exercises
- Producing regular procurement reports
- Ensuring supplier and vendor information is accurate and kept up to date within procurement systems
Experience & Skills

- Previous experience working within a construction environment
- Supply Chain or Procurement experience (preferred but not essential)
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to build positive working relationships
- Strong attention to detail and the ability to meet deadlines
- A proactive attitude with a genuine desire to learn and develop
