- Analysing spend data, benchmarking costs and identifying opportunities to deliver savings and efficiencies
- Maintaining accurate procurement records, including key contracts registers and supplier databases
- Providing advice, guidance and training to colleagues across the organisation to promote best practice procurement and value for money
About you
You’ll be a capable and motivated procurement professional with experience supporting procurement activity in a complex or multi-stakeholder environment. You’ll be confident managing multiple priorities and engaging effectively with colleagues and suppliers to deliver compliant, value-driven outcomes.
You’ll bring:
- Experience delivering procurement activity, including tendering, supplier evaluation, negotiation and contract award
- Strong numerical and analytical skills, with the ability to interrogate spend data and identify opportunities for savings and efficiencies
- The confidence to influence and advise stakeholders at all levels, embedding procurement best practice across the organisation
- Experience managing supplier relationships and supporting effective contract management
- Strong attention to detail, with the ability to maintain accurate records and documentation
- Good IT skills, including experience using procurement, purchasing or finance systems
You’ll be organised, professional and collaborative in your approach, with a genuine interest in improving procurement processes and outcomes. A commitment to continuous professional development is important, and you’ll be keen to develop your procurement expertise, including working towards or holding a CIPS qualification.
Most importantly, you’ll be aligned with Centrepoint’s values and motivated by the opportunity to use procurement as a tool for social impact, helping us move closer to ending youth homelessness.
Why join Centrepoint?
In return for your efforts, you’ll receive a competitive salary, excellent training and development opportunities, and a comprehensive benefits package including:
- 25 days annual leave per year, rising to 27 with service
- Healthcare cash plan (including dental, optical and complementary therapies)
- Private medical insurance

You will be joining The Christie Charity at an exciting time as we seek to diversify the Charity’s income streams through use of innovative social investments and strategic commercial ventures. This position provides an excellent opportunity to develop a deep understanding of charity and commercial finance within a dynamic and purpose-driven organisation.
Financial management
In relation to the financial management of the Charity’s funds, you will support the Finance and Funds Business Partner in ensuring designated named funds comply with governance requirements and are utilised in accordance with their Terms of Reference.
