The posting

Advert Close date: 19th November 2026

Every great project at The Crown Estate, from a Mayfair building to an offshore energy programme, starts with a fair, transparent and well-run procurement. We're looking for a Procurement Specialist to help us deliver them.

You'll manage a varied portfolio of tenders across categories, working alongside our Strategic Procurement Managers. You'll be the go-to person for best-practice tender advice, creating strong documentation, running a clean process and making sure everything complies with the Procurement Act 2023. It's a role for someone who enjoys variety and wants their work to make a difference.

What you'll be doing

  • Managing a portfolio of procurement projects that are fair, transparent, proportionate and compliant
  • Helping shape sourcing strategies, including routes to market and lotting, with creative, value-for-money ideas
  • Making sure we've considered how to lower barriers for SMEs
  • Developing and reviewing tender documentation, and running the tender query process with a full audit trail
  • Advising and supporting project managers who run smaller "self-service" tenders
  • Keeping our procurement pipeline accurate and up to date with stakeholders
  • Supporting larger, strategic procurements, including moderations, presentations and bidder dialogue sessions
  • Taking oversight of selected key contracts and helping colleagues apply the terms correctly
  • Building sustainability and social value into procurements, and improving our tender processes as you go
  • Applying procurement governance so our decisions are auditable and audit-ready

What we're looking for

  • Experience managing end-to-end procurement across a range of categories, ideally using e-tendering software
  • A strong grasp of public sector procurement and Public Procurement Regulations
  • Excellent organisational skills, attention to detail and numeracy
  • Clear written and verbal communication, including the ability to deliver training
  • A solution-focused approach and a willingness to innovate and improve processes
  • CIPS qualified or working towards it is desirable

Why join us:

You'll get a varied portfolio, expert colleagues and room to grow. As well as a competitive salary, pension and performance related bonus offering, we have a wealth of benefits available ranging from flexible working; market leading family policies and shopping discounts in the West End, to private healthcare; life and critical illness cover and 28 days holiday with the option to buy more. We value work life balance and your wellbeing highly, enabling you to be your best self to work.

If you would like to know more, we invite you to an information webinar hosted by the hiring manager and Director of Procurement & SRM, Dr. Beverley Jandziol. This will take place on Wednesday 11th November at 2.30pm. Please join using the link below:

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
