What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in a Social Procurement role, and why are they important?

To thrive in Social Procurement, you need expertise in procurement processes, supplier evaluation, and knowledge of social impact frameworks, often supported by a degree in business, supply chain management, or social sciences. Familiarity with procurement software, contract management systems, and social value measurement tools is typically required. Strong stakeholder engagement, negotiation skills, and a collaborative mindset are essential soft skills for success in this field. These abilities ensure organizations can deliver value-driven procurement outcomes that align with broader social and ethical goals.

How does a Social Procurement professional typically collaborate with internal stakeholders and external partners to achieve social impact goals?

Social Procurement professionals work closely with internal teams such as procurement, legal, and sustainability departments to align purchasing strategies with organizational social impact objectives. They also engage with external stakeholders, including suppliers, social enterprises, and community organizations, to identify opportunities for inclusive sourcing and to monitor compliance with social value commitments. Regular communication, training sessions, and supplier assessments are common practices to ensure all parties are aligned and contribute to achieving measurable social outcomes.

What is social procurement?

Social procurement refers to the practice of using an organization’s purchasing power to generate social value beyond the goods and services being bought. This approach integrates social objectives—such as supporting disadvantaged groups, promoting local businesses, or encouraging environmental sustainability—into procurement policies and processes. By doing so, organizations can positively impact communities and contribute to broader social and economic goals while fulfilling their operational needs.

Job description

We are seeking a detail-oriented and service-focused Procurement Specialist to support purchasing and grant-related operations. This role serves as a primary point of contact for grant managers, providing updates on procurement activities, assisting with documentation, and ensuring all purchases meet sponsor and institutional requirements. The position is responsible for preparing and maintaining accurate records and monitoring assigned indexes to identify needs, and support audit readiness, reporting, and closeouts.

The Procurement Specialist supports the full purchasing and travel lifecycle, including preparing purchase requests, assisting with quotes, drafting purchase orders, and maintaining PCard documentation. The role also coordinates travel, assisting faculty and staff with authorizations, reimbursements, conference registrations, and lodging while ensuring compliance with University policy.

The University of New Mexico Comprehensive Cancer Center is the Official Cancer Center of New Mexico and the only National Cancer Institute-designated Cancer Center in a 500-mile radius. Its 136 board-certified oncology specialty physicians include cancer surgeons in every specialty (abdominal, thoracic, bone and soft tissue, neurosurgery, genitourinary, gynecology, and head and neck cancers), adult and pediatric hematologists/medical oncologists, gynecologic oncologists, and radiation oncologists. They, along with more than 600 other cancer healthcare professionals (nurses, pharmacists, nutritionists, navigators, psychologists and social workers), provide treatment to 65% of New Mexico's cancer patients from all across the state. And they partner with community health systems statewide to provide cancer care closer to home. In 2024 they treated more than 15,000 patients in almost 105,000 ambulatory clinic visits in addition to in-patient hospitalizations at UNM Hospital. A total of 2,075 patients participated in cancer clinical trials to study new cancer treatments that include tests of novel cancer prevention strategies and cancer genome sequencing. The more than 123 cancer research scientists affiliated with the UNM Cancer Center were awarded 38.3 million in federal and private grants and contracts for cancer research projects. Since 2015, the physicians, scientists and staff have provided education and training experiences to more than 750 high school, undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral fellowship students in cancer research and cancer health care delivery.
