Strategic Leader in Public Sector Procurement
2 days ago
Transforming procurement operations is a pivotal opportunity to drive reform, innovation, and excellence across all functions.
You will lead a team through this transformation — driving consistency, compliance, and capability uplift across the enterprise. Your leadership in operational excellence will ensure procurement practices comply with evolving government legislation, policy requirements, and NSW procurement accreditation standards.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement a centre-led procurement operating model for consistency, efficiency, and compliance.
- Establish and update enterprise-wide procurement policy frameworks to keep pace with changing legislation, regulations, and organisational goals.
- Build scalable, user-friendly processes to support compliance and innovation across goods, services, and construction procurement.
- Design and enhance procurement processes, tools, and templates to improve efficiency, accountability, and capability uplift.
- Manage and maintain NSW Procurement Accreditation for Goods and Services, ensuring compliance with government requirements and driving continuous improvement.
- Develop and implement organisation-wide training and development programs to embed procurement excellence and uplift capability across all divisions.
- Align procurement frameworks with best practices in category management, strategic sourcing, and contract management.
- Provide expert guidance on policy and framework compliance while promoting procurement excellence and continuous improvement.
- Embed Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into procurement to support sustainability commitments and maintain accreditation.
- Lead enterprise-level procurement performance reporting, using data and insights to monitor compliance, inform decision-making, and support continuous improvement.
- Build, grow, and lead a high-performing team of procurement professionals, ensuring policies and processes align with regulatory obligations, government expectations, and accreditation requirements.
This role requires an experienced and strategic leader with deep expertise in government procurement regulations, accreditation requirements, and public sector best practices. A proven track record in leading procurement policy, governance, and framework initiatives within a large organisation is essential. Category management, strategic sourcing, and contract lifecycle management skills, combined with a commitment to embedding ESG principles, make you the ideal candidate to transform procurement operations.
