MSI Reproductive Choices is one of the world’s leading providers of sexual and reproductive healthcare. We believe that everyone should have the right to choose. From contraception to safe abortion and life-saving post-abortion care, we are committed to delivering compassionate, affordable, high-quality services for all.
Today, our organisation has almost 9,000 team members working in 36 countries across the world. Our success lies in the fact that MSI teams are locally led, entrepreneurial and results-driven, and are passionate about delivering high quality, client-centred care in their own communities. As a social business, we focus on sustainable delivery, efficiency, and funding models that are built to last, so that the women and girls we serve today will have a choice in the future too.
We know that access to reproductive choice is life changing. For some, it can mean the ability to complete an education or start a career. For others, it means being able to look after the family they already have. For everyone, it means the freedom to decide their own future, creating a fairer, more equal world.
About the Role
The Global Supply Chain team works across all of our Country Programmes to impart best practice on all international procurement and supply chain operations but further to that, to build capacity throughout our network. The Procurement Administrator is a new initiative within the Global Supply Chain function. This function is a strategic activity within MSI, aimed at ensuring availability of quality products at the right cost in an efficient and effective manner.
The Global Supply Chain department is led by the Director, Global Procurement and Supply Chain Operations and consists of a Procurement Team, Regulatory Team and a newly created Supply Chain Performance Team.
This role involves providing high-level administrative support, maintaining effective office systems, and acting as a point of contact with other teams and departments. The administrator will work closely with the leadership of the Global Supply Chain team to ensure efficient and effective operations, publication of new tools and toolkits and monitoring of commercial opportunities within Country Programmes.
About You
For us, it’s vital that every MSI team member believes in and is committed to our organisational mission, vision and values.
This means that we will only accept applications from candidates who are unequivocally pro-choice.
Our values act as guiding principles, providing us with a clear direction. They set the tone for how we approach our work, interact with others and align ourselves as ‘One MSI’. It’s important that our team members truly resonate with our values and demonstrate them consistently, in all that they do.
We recruit talented, dynamic individuals with diverse backgrounds who share our mission and are focused on delivering measurable results. As an equal opportunity employer, we are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where everyone can participate and contribute meaningfully. We value open-mindedness, curiosity, resilience, and a solutions-oriented mindset, alongside a commitment to promoting equality and safeguarding the welfare of both team members and clients.
We seek exceptional communicators who are self-motivated, solutions-driven, and aligned with MSI’s mission and entrepreneurial mindset.
