Procurement Administrator

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.

Based from our Stratford-Upon-Avon head office you will work in a small specialist team within the wider Procurement division. There are opportunities to develop within NFU Mutual as the organisation grows, adapts, and implements change projects.

Duties include

Train and support system users to optimise their compliance and efficient use of systems,

Advise the business on the P2P systems as a super user

Collaborate with buyers, suppliers and internal business users and analyse systems data to maximise cost control opportunities

Collaborate with various teams to resolve system issues

Provide guidance and advice to the business on policies, procedures, processes, and best practice

Build and maintain effective relationships with business areas and suppliers

You will be friendly, adaptable, and diligent, with strong administration and customer service skills. Alongside this you will have:

Effective communication skills (written and verbal) and the confidence to train/coach non-technical stakeholders.

Experience using Microsoft Office applications

Analytical skills in Excel

Experience of conducting administration tasks across various business systems

Experience of financial administration or P2P processing is desirable but not essential
