We’re looking for a Procurement Officer to support the sourcing of high‑quality goods and services while ensuring Dogs Trust achieves the best value for money. Working closely with the Procurement Manager, you’ll help deliver effective procurement and contract management services and provide deputising support when needed.

• Support colleagues across the charity with procurement activity, including tenders, sourcing, negotiations and service reviews.
• Research and source products and services from reputable suppliers, negotiating contracts to secure strong value and terms.
• Build and maintain positive supplier relationships, while monitoring spend to identify savings and efficiencies.
• Ensure procurement activity complies with policies, regulations and best practice, staying informed on market and sector trends.
• Review existing contracts, identify improvement opportunities, and provide ad‑hoc procurement advice to teams.

You’ll bring experience across multiple procurement categories (including technology), strong negotiation and communication skills, and the ability to analyse data and solve problems with a focus on value for money. Highly organised and detail‑driven, you’ll be comfortable managing deadlines and priorities, skilled in using Microsoft Office and procurement software, and committed to the aims and values of Dogs Trust.
