Role Context
The Procurement Office operates through two distinct teams: a Field Team deployed overseas (Italy, France, and other sourcing markets) responsible for physical store procurement, and an Office Team based in Libya managing all back-office, digital, and administrative procurement functions. The Procurement Coordinator sits within the Office Team and occupies a critical middle layer — executing and overseeing day-to-day procurement workflows, supervising the Grade 2 Procurement Assistant, and serving as the primary operational link between the Libya office and the overseas field team. This role carries a higher degree of independent responsibility than Grade 2, with direct accountability for procurement workflow compliance, system accuracy, and shift-level operational decisions.
Job Purpose
The Procurement Coordinator manages and coordinates the day-to-day procurement operations of the Libya-based office, ensuring that all digital procurement activities, purchase order workflows, supplier communications, and system records are executed accurately, efficiently, and in full compliance with organizational policies. The role supervises the Grade 2 Procurement Assistant and acts as the primary operational coordinator between the office team and the overseas field procurement team. The Procurement Coordinator is responsible for ensuring procurement workflows are completed end-to-end during the shift, resolving operational issues independently within their authority, and escalating complex matters to the Grade 4 Procurement Specialist.
