Thanks Jacques. Having read that description I realise I am not a sourcing specialist at all.

If I can give you a brief outline of my job role perhaps you can advise me as to where this role would fit into other companies or what I must do in order to look for jobs in other companies.

Below is what our procurement process involves and where I am involved:

-Buyer see's that a contract is ending and decides that they would like to re-tender it.
-They approach me with their requirements for their tender and I discuss possible methods to build it in our procurement system.
-I build the e-tender
-When tender ends the buyer and myself sit down to discuss results and whether it will go to auction.
-If going to auction I will discuss strategy with the buyer according to what the ideal outcome is, what limitations and boundaries there are, what style of auction to use etc.
-I build the auction and train suppliers
-Auction is executed.

This is a very brief overview and I also have to ensure the eSourcing plan is kept up-to-date and accurate according to what events will be taking place throughout the year.

Any comments or help regarding the role itself will be much appreciated.
