Join us

Working with an experienced Board, regional committees and a talented leadership team, you will shape and deliver the next phase of the Group’s development, ensuring LHC Procurement Group remains commercially successful, financially sustainable and unwavering in its commitment to improving lives and places through quality procurement solutions. 

Welcome and thank you for your interest in becoming the next Group Chief Executive Officer of LHC Procurement Group.

This is an exciting and important moment for our organisation. For more than 60 years, LHC Procurement Group has helped public sector organisations deliver better homes, buildings and community infrastructure through high-quality procurement solutions. Throughout that time, we have remained focused on a simple but powerful purpose: improving lives and places through quality procurement solutions. 

Since becoming an independent not-for-profit organisation in 2023, we have continued to evolve while staying true to the values and principles that have underpinned our success. Today, we are a Gold Standard accredited organisation with a unique position in the market, operating across England, Scotland and Wales through a network of regional business units supported by a national Centre of Excellence. We combine national reach with regional expertise, helping public sector clients and supply chain partners deliver meaningful outcomes for local communities.  

The context in which we operate continues to change rapidly. Public sector organisations face increasing pressure to deliver value for money, support economic growth, accelerate decarbonisation, respond to evolving procurement legislation and maximise social value for the communities they serve. At the same time, there is a growing expectation that procurement should be a strategic tool for delivering wider public benefit. We believe LHC Procurement Group is uniquely placed to help meet these challenges.

Procurement has a profound influence on the places in which people live, work and learn. Every year, decisions made through public procurement shape the quality of housing, community facilities, schools, healthcare environments and local infrastructure across the UK. At its best, procurement is about far more than securing value for money. It is a powerful enabler of social value, sustainability, innovation and economic opportunity. LHC Procurement Group has long championed this broader vision, helping clients use procurement strategically to achieve lasting benefits for communities while ensuring public investment delivers the greatest possible impact.  

As Group Chief Executive Officer, you will work closely with the Board, our regional committees and a talented leadership team to shape and deliver the next phase of our development. You will provide strategic direction and operational leadership across a complex, multi-site organisation, ensuring that we continue to deliver outstanding services for our clients while strengthening our commercial performance, organisational resilience and social impact.  

You will be a visible and credible leader, capable of building strong relationships across government, local authorities, housing providers, supply chains and the wider construction and procurement sectors. You will understand how to balance commercial success with public purpose, recognising that our ability to create community benefit depends upon the strength and sustainability of the organisation itself. 

We are seeking an individual who combines strategic vision with pragmatism, who can navigate complexity with confidence and who is motivated by collaboration, impact and long-term value. Above all, we are looking for a leader who will champion our purpose, support our people and help ensure that social value remains at the heart of everything we do.  

This is a rare opportunity to lead an established and respected organisation at a time of significant opportunity. With strong foundations, an excellent reputation and a clear sense of purpose, LHC Procurement Group is well positioned to continue shaping the future of public sector procurement and delivering positive outcomes for communities across the UK.  

Thank you for taking the time to consider this opportunity. I hope you are inspired by our mission, our achievements and our ambition for the future, and I look forward to meeting those who wish to lead LHC Procurement Group into its next chapter.  

Yours sincerely,

Rt Hon Dame Maria Miller DBE
Chair, LHC Procurement Group Board
