I’m excited to be supporting Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) with an opportunity for a Supply Chain & Procurement Coordinator to join their team in Darlington.

This is a great opportunity for someone with experience in procurement, purchasing or supply chain coordination who is looking to develop their career within a major energy infrastructure project.

Working closely with the Contracts & Procurement Manager, you’ll play an important role in supplier onboarding, qualification and management, while supporting day-to-day procurement activities across the business. It’s an opportunity to build on your existing experience, develop your commercial knowledge and work alongside an experienced C&P team.

The Role

Coordinate supplier onboarding, qualification and due diligence activities. Maintain NEP’s Approved Supplier List (ASL), ensuring supplier records, certifications and compliance documentation are accurate and up to date. Manage purchase order administration and support the review of supplier quotations and terms. Assist with supplier research, market engagement and commercial evaluations. Support RFQs, tendering activities and the preparation of procurement strategies and award recommendations. Maintain accurate procurement documentation, records and audit trails. Build effective relationships with suppliers and internal stakeholders across finance, legal, technical and operational teams. Contribute to improving procurement processes, governance and supplier management practices.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is organised, detail-oriented and proactive, with the confidence to manage multiple priorities and build effective working relationships. You’ll ideally have:

3–5 years’ experience in supply chain, procurement, purchasing or commercial support. Experience coordinating supplier onboarding, qualification, due diligence or supplier management. An understanding of procurement governance and supplier compliance requirements. Experience maintaining supplier databases or an Approved Supplier List. Familiarity with supplier intelligence and risk management processes. Strong administrative, organisational and communication skills, with excellent attention to detail. Experience managing purchase orders, using Excel and working with procurement or tendering systems would be beneficial. CIPS qualifications, or working towards them, would also be advantageous, as would experience in energy, engineering, construction or infrastructure.

Why Consider This Opportunity? This is an excellent opportunity to join NEP and contribute to a significant UK energy infrastructure project, while developing your procurement and commercial expertise. You’ll be part of a collaborative team, gain exposure to a broad range of procurement activities and have the opportunity to build a long-term career within supply chain and contracts.
