Procurement Officer | £35,000 – £40,000 | Leeds | Hybrid (50/50)
ALF Recruit is delighted to be partnering with a growing, values-led organisation on the outskirts of Leeds to recruit a Procurement Officer into a newly developing procurement function. This is a genuine opportunity to help shape and build something from the ground up.
What you will get
- £35,000 – £40,000 depending on experience
- Hybrid working — 50/50 split between home and the office
- The opportunity to help build and shape a developing procurement function
- Real ownership, variety and visibility across the organisation
- A values-led organisation where the work genuinely matters
This is a fantastic role for a procurement or purchasing professional who wants ownership and impact. Working closely with the Procurement Manager, Finance and operational teams, you’ll play a central part in strengthening procurement governance, improving compliance and embedding best practice across the organisation. If you like the idea of building process rather than just following it, this one is well worth a look.
Why this is a great role
This is an organisation investing in its future, building a robust, well-governed procurement function to support its continued growth. As Procurement Officer, you won’t be a small cog in a large machine. You’ll be hands-on in developing the Approved Supplier List, shaping supplier onboarding, and helping introduce a Purchase Order process alongside Finance. For the right person, it’s a chance to make a real mark and grow your career as the function matures.
