El1 Assistant Director, Procurement

2 weeks ago

Canberra, Australia HorizonOne Recruitment Full time

**About the Fair Work Ombudsman**:
The Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) is the nation’s Industrial Relations Regulator. They are a purpose-driven and high profile independent statutory agency. The FWO is well known to most Australians who have or have had employment. A key feature of onboarding in a new role is being given educational material written by the FWO. **Their staff enjoy a strong enterprise agreement and a positive culture that leads to an excellent census result each year, evidenced by long tenure across the organisation.**

**The Opportunity**:
If you’re looking for an EL1 leadership role in a small to medium sized national agency, where you can work autonomously in a centralised procurement/financial operations team with mature processes, then this is an outstanding opportunity. You will report directly to an experienced and supportive CFO who will invest in you and help you continue your learning and development.

This is an opportunity for a driven, hands-on procurement professional to make their mark on a high-profile agency. You will focus on educating internal stakeholders on procurement compliance to uplift capability across the organisation. The relatively smaller size of the FWO means that you’ll be involved in end-to-end procurement processes and also have the opportunity to influence the strategic direction of the team. You will manage two junior staff members who are experienced and have strong corporate knowledge.

**This position can be located out of any of the FWO offices across Australia, with the most practical locations being Canberra or Melbourne. There is strong flexibility including working from home (only require staff to be in the office two days per week).***
- If you are currently an APS employee, you will be engaged on an s26 12-month temporary transfer with view to permanency. _
- If you aren’t currently in the APS, you will be engaged on a 12-month non-ongoing salaried contract with view to permanency._

**The Role**:
**Your key accountabilities will include the following**:

- Lead the financial operations team and manage FWO’s procurement, travel, and corporate credit card functions
- Manage end-to-end procurement processes across the agency including providing advice and liaison with stakeholders managing their contracts
- Update the procurement and contract management guide
- Provide compliance assurance reports around procurement, travel and use of corporate credit card
- Supervise a junior staff member in managing travel and credit card queries
- Liaise with Service Delivery Office and follow up outstanding issues with purchase order or invoices payments
- Draft briefs or reports for senate estimates or executive

**The Ideal Person**:
**This role is suited to a high performing individual with procurement expertise and experience within a federal or state government environment. **Procurement skills are more important than having a technical financial/accounting background.

You will also have:

- An excellent understanding of the Commonwealth Procurement Rules and the PGPA Act
- Experience managing both simple and complex end-to-end procurement processes
- Expertise in risk management as it relates to procurement and contract administration
- Experience managing, guiding or directing junior staff members
- Proven ability to work under limited direction in a high volume environment
- Strong attention to detail
- Excellent communication and negotiation skills, both written and verbal_ _
- You must be an Australian citizen, be willing to undergo a police check and have the ability to obtain a Baseline security clearance._

**Salary / Rate**:

- **$118k - $128k + 15.4% super** or salary match for current APS employees
- For current APS employees: 12-month temporary transfer with view to convert to full permanent transfer
- For current non-APS employees: 12-month non-ongoing salaried contract with view to permanency

**How to Apply**:
Alternatively, for a confidential discussion, please contact **Liz Strachan** on 02 6108 4878 quoting ref no. **17628.
