Summary
Why join us?
You will work with diverse, committed and energetic colleagues who all bring different skills and experience to the team and thus creating an environment of continual learning. You are likely to work with military colleagues, civil servants and consultants of all grades and ranks.
The available roles include procurement and contract management. In procurement roles you will be expected to support the procurement process, contributing to delivering commercial excellence for your department and providing a customer-focused service. The role is varied as you will be expected to work within relevant frameworks in order to contribute to all stages of the procurement process, from helping to gather requirements from across the business in line with market research, through to the handing over of the contract to contract and supplier management.
In the contract management role, you will be expected to undertake effective contract management activity in support of one (or more) of the organisation’s large strategic contracts. The role includes supporting activity relating to: mobilising contracts, managing the delivery and performance of the contract, carrying out day to day contract changes, managing risk within the contract and managing contract transition and exit.
You will work as part of a larger team, but will be expected to be able to prioritise and manage your own workload to deliver to deadlines and know when to seek support in order to balance both operationally urgent and important tasks.
