💻 Are you a procurement expert who thrives in fast-paced, flexible environments?
🛠️ Do you love driving digital change - and want your work to have a real social impact?
If so, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re looking for an experienced IT Procurement Specialist to join us at StepChange Debt Charity on a 12-month fixed-term contract - someone who can lead from day one, mentor others, and play a vital role in our digital transformation journey.
This isn’t just a procurement role. It’s a chance to help shape the future of a purpose-driven organisation that supports millions of people in problem debt across the UK.
What You’ll Do:
You’ll lead the full end-to-end procurement lifecycle for core contracts for technology and IT services - from RFIs and RFPs to contract negotiations, supplier relationships, and compliance. You’ll work closely with our Digital and Change Services team to deliver smart, scalable solutions that align with budget and strategy.
You’ll also help others grow. Supporting two Procurement Assistants, you’ll act as a mentor and coach - developing capability across the wider team and helping us raise the bar for procurement at StepChange.
Your work will directly support our growth and transformation as we embrace the digital world - helping us deliver services more effectively, securely, and sustainably for those who need us most.
About You:
You're confident in your procurement expertise, particularly in IT and within a challenging non-profit Procurement environment, you can bring structure and clarity to complex procurement. You're commercially savvy, highly organised, and thrive under pressure.
You're also a natural collaborator - someone who can build strong relationships across IT, Finance, Legal, and beyond. With a clear understanding of licensing models, supplier performance, and procurement best practice, you're ready to drive value and compliance across the board, with little supervision required.
And just as importantly - you’re someone who values autonomy, integrity, and purpose.
Equality, diversity, and inclusion:
Equality, diversity, and inclusion are incredibly important to us; we have a culture of belonging. We’re always looking to increase the diversity of our workforce to ensure we can provide the best service possible for everyone. It’s not just about the professional experience you bring – we’re interested in who you are and your potential. If there’s an adjustment to our recruitment process that would help you to be your best, speak to our team and they’ll be happy to help.
