How to write a procurement officer resume

Craft a resume summary statement

Put a resume summary on the top of your resume to highlight your accomplishments. A resume summary sums up your experience and skills, making it easy for hiring managers to understand your qualifications at a glance. Here are some tips to write a strong, impressive resume summary:

Step 1: Start with your professional title, or the one you aspire to.

Step 2: Detail your years of experience in procurement officer-related roles and your industry experience.

Step 3: What are your biggest professional wins? Here is your opportunity to highlight your strongest accomplishments by placing them at the start of your resume.

Step 4: Don't forget, your goal is to summarize your experience. Keep it short and sweet, so it's easy for recruiters to quickly understand why you're a great hire.

These four steps should give you a strong elevator pitch and land you some procurement officer interviews.

Hi, I'm Zippi, your job search robot. Let me write a first draft of your summary statement.

List the right project manager skills

Many resumes are filtered out by hiring software before a human eye ever sees them. A robust Skills section can let recruiters (and bots) know you have the skills to do the job. Here is how to make the most of your skills section:

You often need to include the exact keywords from the job description in your resume. Look at the job listing and consider which of the listed skills you have experience with, along with related skills.
Include as many relevant hard skills and soft skills as possible from the listing.
Use the most up to date and accurate terms. Don't forget to be specific.

These five steps should give you a strong elevator pitch and land you some procurement officer interviews.

Here are example skills to include in your “Area of Expertise” on a procurement officer resume:

Purchase Orders
Purchase Requisitions
Contract Management
Logistics
Procurement Procedures
Procurement Policies
Cost Savings
Procurement Process
Strategic Sourcing
Contract Administration

RFP
RFQ
Financial Reports
Contract Negotiations
Commodities
Professional Services
Delivery Dates
Cost Reduction
ERP
Bid Specifications

How to structure your work experience

Your work experience should be structured:

With your most recent roles first, followed by earlier roles in reverse chronological order.
Job title, along with company name and location on the left.
Put the corresponding dates of employment on the left side.
Keep only relevant jobs on your work experience.

How to write procurement officer experience bullet points

Remember, your resume is not a list of responsibilities or a job description. This is your chance to show why you're good at your job and what you accomplished.

Use the XYZ formula for your work experience bullet points. Here's how it works:

Use strong action verbs like Led, Built, or Optimized.
Follow up with numbers when possible to support your results. How much did performance improve? How much revenue did you drive?
Wrap it up by explaining the actions you took to achieve the result and how you made an impact.

This creates bullet points that read Achieved X, measured by Y, by doing Z.

Here are examples from great procurement officer resumes:

Add an education section to your resume

The education section should display your highest degree first.

Place your education section appropriately on your resume. If you graduated over 5 years ago, this section should be at the bottom of your resume. If you just graduated and lack relevant work experience, the education section should go to the top.

If you have a bachelor's or master's degree, do not list your high school education. If your graduation year is more than 15-20 years ago, it's better not to include dates in this section.

Here are some examples of good education entries from procurement officer resumes:

Bachelor's Degree in business

Strayer University, Washington, DC

2006 - 2009

Master's Degree in business

Strayer University, Washington, DC

1999 - 2000

Highlight your procurement officer certifications on your resume

If you have any additional certifications, add them to the certification section.

Start simple. Include the full name of the certification. It's also good to mention the organization that issued the certification. Next, specify when you obtained the certification.

If you have any of these certifications, be sure to include them on your procurement officer resume:

Certified Supply Chain Professional (CSCP)
Certified Purchasing Professional (CPP)
Certified Management Accountant (CMA)
Certified Professional in Supply Management (CPSM)
Certified Professional Contracts Manager (CPCM)
