Junior Procurement Assistant

Due to continued growth, our city‑based client is looking to recruit a Junior Procurement Assistant to work closely with the Head of Procurement.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is organised, confident, and full of common sense, with a real roll‑your‑sleeves‑up attitude. We’re keen to hear from people who enjoy learning, are happy to give things a go, and thrive in a busy, team‑focused environment.

The Role

You will support the day‑to‑day procurement function, helping to ensure everything runs smoothly. Your responsibilities will include:

Providing centralised administrative support to the procurement team, including booking meetings, arranging transport and deliveries, and handling internal enquiries
Creating and managing purchase orders
Resolving escalated invoice queries and responding to supplier enquiries
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

We’re looking for someone who brings enthusiasm, reliability, and a strong work ethic, along with:

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
Confidence using systems and databases (experience with Procore would be an advantage, but is not essential)
An understanding of the importance of delivering a first‑class service
UK Driving Licence

In Return

You’ll be joining a supportive, forward‑thinking team that values its people and offers ongoing training, development opportunities, and a great working environment
