Procurement News 28 October 2022

Firstly, a warm welcome to Claire Baxter, who joined the team this week as Senior Category Manager, responsible for corporate and academic services activity.

Secondly, the team are hiring! We are looking for a Procurement administrator who will be able to help our team. Applications close 20th November.

The team have also published a Risk Management Policy.

Procurement Training Sessions: Our first face-to-face session was held on 21st October and there will be many sessions in future months. If you are interested in attending please contact the team.

Purchasing Cards: The Team has provided purchasing cards to a number of business units. If you have a low value order (less than £1,500) and the supplier accepts payment by card it may be quicker and easier to pay by card than to raise a Purchase Order. If you require a higher credit limit please contact the team to discuss.

eBay: Please note that the University Procurement Team has an Ebay account and if you require anything from Ebay please contact the team. You should not set up separate Ebay accounts for University purchasing activity.
