With a proud history and an ambitious vision for the future, the FAI is committed to fostering excellence on and off the pitch, ensuring the game is inclusive, accessible, and a source of national pride.

Purpose of the Role

The Procurement Lead is responsible for leading and embedding best practice procurement across the Football Association of Ireland (FAI), ensuring all procurement activity is conducted in line with the FAI Procurement Policy, Delegation of Authority, governance requirements and applicable legislation.

Working as part of the Finance team, the role provides procurement expertise across the organisation, supporting departments with commercial advice, managing tender processes, driving value for money and ensuring effective procurement governance and audit compliance.

Support annual procurement planning and sourcing strategies.
Provide commercial guidance on supplier selection, market opportunities and value-for-money solutions.
Support departments in meeting operational requirements while maintaining procurement standards.

Supplier & Contract Management

Manage supplier engagement while ensuring fairness, transparency and commercial value.
Support supplier onboarding by coordinating procurement, due diligence and contract documentation requirements. Identify opportunities for supplier consolidation and strategic sourcing.
Support commercial negotiations and supplier performance reviews.
Facilitate supplier performance reviews with business owners, monitoring agreed SLAs and KPIs where appropriate.
Work with business units to support effective contract management.

Contract & Financial Governance

Work closely with Legal and Finance teams to ensure appropriate review and approval processes are followed.
Ensure procurement activity aligns with approved budgets, Delegation of Authority and the FAI PO policy.
Ensure procurement documentation supports contract execution and audit requirements.

Policy & Continuous Improvement

Identify opportunities to improve procurement processes, efficiency and value delivery.
Develop procurement guidance, templates and tools for FAI staff.
Provide procurement awareness and guidance across the organisation.
Deliver procurement training and awareness sessions to staff, budget holders and key stakeholders to promote compliance with procurement policies and best practice.
Maintain knowledge of procurement best practice and regulatory developments.

Knowledge & Experience

Essential

Significant experience in procurement, sourcing or commercial management.
Experience managing competitive tender processes from initiation through to contract award.
Strong understanding of procurement governance, policies and best practice.
Experience preparing tender documentation, evaluation processes and procurement reports.
Experience working within approval frameworks and audit environments.
Strong commercial negotiation and analytical skills.
Ability to build effective relationships across multiple functions.
Excellent communication, organisation and reporting skills.

Desirable

Procurement qualification (CIPS or equivalent).
Experience within a sporting, public sector, not-for-profit or regulated organisation.
