Inventory & Purchasing Support Team Leader
Location: Denmark Hill, London
Department: Supply Chain
Salary Grade: £36,000 - £43,800 per annum + up to 12% bonus
Contract Type: Permanent
The Role
We are looking for an enthusiastic and proactive Inventory & Purchasing Support Team Leader to join our Supply Chain department.
In this role, you will manage a team of up to 10 Inventory Coordinators and Inventory Management & Purchasing Lead, ensuring the
efficient delivery of a Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) support service. Your responsibilities will include overseeing requisitions,
processing purchase orders, analysing usage trends, and influencing standardisation to optimise procurement processes. You will
also collaborate closely with internal teams and suppliers to drive continuous improvement and deliver exceptional service to our
clients.
To succeed in this role, you should have a strong educational background, including GCSEs in Mathematics and English (or
equivalent). A qualification such as NVQ 3 in Supply Chain Management or Level 2 of CIPS (or equivalent procurement experience) is
also required. You will bring experience working with suppliers and customers in large organisations, along with proficiency in
using procure-to-pay systems (e.g., Oracle) and Microsoft Office tools like Excel, Word, and Outlook. A background in customer
service and catalogue management is highly desirable, as is experience working within the public sector.
The ideal candidate will possess excellent interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively with
stakeholders at all levels. You should be analytical, detail-oriented, and capable of managing competing priorities to meet
deadlines. We are looking for someone who is a team player, and committed to delivering high standards of service.
Submit an application to become part of a purpose-driven organisation dedicated to supporting the NHS as part of a collaborative
team environment that values innovation and continuous improvement.
We are looking to offer this role as either; a permanent role with KFM, or a 1 year secondment if you are currently employed by
KFM.
