Job description

Are you organised, confident using Excel and looking for a role where you can learn, develop new skills and build a long-term career?

We're looking for a motivated and detail-oriented individual to join our procurement team as a Junior Procurement Coordinator. This is an excellent opportunity for a bright graduate or someone with some office experience who is ready to take the next step into a more commercially focused role.

You don't need previous procurement experience. What matters most is a positive attitude, good attention to detail, confidence with basic Excel and a willingness to learn.

Working closely with the Head of Procurement, you'll gain hands-on experience of how purchasing works within a busy business, helping to coordinate suppliers, support internal teams and keep purchasing activities running smoothly.

You'll work with a variety of colleagues across purchasing, finance, warehouse, sales, account management and customer support, as well as communicating with external suppliers. It's a great opportunity to develop your commercial awareness, build valuable business skills and establish a foundation for a rewarding career in procurement.

What we're looking for

• Good organisational skills and strong attention to detail.
• Basic Excel skills and confidence working with spreadsheets and data.
• Good communication skills and a professional, helpful approach.
• A proactive attitude, with the ability to learn quickly and take ownership of tasks.
• Someone who enjoys working as part of a team but can also use their initiative.
• An interest in business, purchasing or supply chain, with a desire to develop professionally.

Previous procurement experience isn't essential. We're more interested in your potential, attitude and enthusiasm to learn.

Salary and benefits

• Salary up to 27,000, depending on experience.
• 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays.
• CIPS study support for the right candidate following successful completion of a six-month probationary period.
• Clear opportunities for career progression as your skills and experience develop.
• Monday to Friday working - 9:00 am to 5:30 pm, with a one-hour lunch break.
• Some flexibility around start and finish times.
• Workplace pension.
• On-site parking.

This is more than an entry-level office role. It's an opportunity to learn a valuable business function, develop in-demand commercial skills and work towards a recognised professional qualification.

If you're bright, organised, comfortable with Excel and keen to build a career, we'd love to hear from you.
