• Support day-to-day supplier onboarding, communication, and compliance tracking (e.g. HACCP, insurance, licences).
• Maintain accurate product and supplier information in our ordering platform (AVC Live).
• Operate our internal help desk, providing support to venue teams on procurement-related queries.
• Assist in procurement set-up for venue acquisitions and divestments.
• Track supplier rebates, assist with invoicing, and follow up on payments.
  
  

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience in procurement coordination, administration, or supplier support.
• Strong organisational and time-management skills.
• A proactive mindset and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Clear and confident communicator.
• Familiarity with project management tools (e.g. Monday.com) and ordering systems (e.g. AVC Live) is highly regarded.
• Understanding of food safety compliance (e.g. HACCP) is a bonus.
• A strong interest in growing your career in procurement and supply chain operations.
  
  

Why Join AVC?

• Work alongside a team of experienced food procurement professionals.
• Gain exposure to strategic sourcing, category management, and supplier performance analysis.
• Opportunity to lead procurement projects and contribute to process improvements.
• Develop career pathways into Procurement Coordinator, Analyst, or Category Management roles.
• Be part of a fast-paced, supportive, and growing hospitality business.
