Join Our Team:

NEPO undertakes high-value procurement in major strategic areas of spend in partnership with North East local authorities (known as our Member Authorities) and a range of nationwide Associate Members.

We are focussed on delivering positive outcomes for our Member Authorities, regional supply base and over 900 Associate Members from the wider public sector. In addition to delivering a collaborative procurement work programme of £850M, NEPO is responsible for the Open and the NEPO Business Club programme of support for our suppliers.

We are a forward-thinking organisation that supports personal development and provides a unique opportunity to work collaboratively across the North East public sector. We have produced a guide to the employee benefits on offer at NEPO to give you a flavour of the welcoming and supportive culture we champion.

This is your opportunity to join a small, vibrant organisation, and be part of a friendly team that works closely with local authority colleagues across the region to deliver a diverse programme of work.

NEPO employees benefit from:

• Flexible working
• Access to technology that enables agile working
• Continuing professional development, including training opportunities
• Annual leave ranging from 26 to 32 days (depending on length of service), plus public holidays
• Eligibility to join the Local Government Pension Scheme
• Hybrid working model with HQ in Gateshead’s Baltic Quarter
• Various salary sacrifice schemes including car and bike schemes

The role:

This role incorporates a wide pay band in recognition of the range of skill levels we are able to recruit at – from junior entry-level through to highperforming individuals who will be the managers of the future. The people who prosper in procurement generally have strong interpersonal and analytical skills and can communicate their ideas through a wide range of formats to a variety of stakeholders.

• Assist and deliver procurement activity for major spend categories for the public sector in the North East region and nationally.
• Work independently, flexibly and innovatively, supporting the Procurement Specialist with the delivery of the Collaborative Procurement Work Programme.
