We also recognize that Centennial is situated on the Treaty Lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and pay tribute to their legacy as well as that of all First Peoples that have been and remain present here in Toronto. We recognize that First Peoples come from sovereign Nations and that part of understanding our responsibilities of residing on this territory are understanding the true history, circumstances and legacy of the Treaties signed here (such as the Toronto Purchase, Robinson-Huron Treaty and Williams Treaties) and including pre-contact Treaties and Agreements between sovereign Nations and that all peoples in this area are therefore Treaty people with obligations and responsibilities to all our relations.

Oversees procurement operations to ensure efficient processing of orders, contract compliance, timely delivery of goods and services and accurate supplier setup in financial systems.
Manages and administers the College’s corporate purchasing/credit card (P-Card) program ensuring that cardholders comply with the College’s policies.
Oversees the College’s insurance program, including managing claims, assessing the adequacy of coverage and keeping abreast of changes in the College’s operations and risk profile to ensure that coverage is adequate.
Updates procurement related policies and procedures as needed and ensures they are consistent with relevant provincial directives and legislation.
Prepares routine and ad hoc procurement reporting for submission to senior management, the Ministry/Supply Ontario or as requested.
Identifies, establishes and manages quality relationships with key external stakeholders including collaborative buying partners (e.g., Supply Ontario, Ontario Education Collaborative Marketplace (OECM), Kinetic GPO), legal advisors, suppliers, insurance providers, corporate credit card financial institutions and other post-secondary institutions.
Provides leadership, supervision and direction to staff including setting goals, determining work priorities, hiring, performance management and providing adequate training and opportunities for professional development.

Qualifications/Experience

Four-year (4) diploma or degree in Accounting, Business, Finance, or relevant field.
Minimum of 7 years of progressive experience within the procurement function in a large organization, preferably in the post-secondary sector or a public sector.
Demonstrated supervisory experience, including recruitment, work assignment, performance management, and employee development, preferably within a unionized environment.
Certified Supply Chain Management Professional (CSCMP) accreditation through the Purchasing Management Association of Canada, or an equivalent designation from a recognized procurement or supply chain association, is considered an asset.
