About the job.

We're thrilled to offer an outstanding opportunity for an ambitious Procurement Manager to join our dynamic team within the Business Services Directorate. This is much more than just a job-it's the chance to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of procurement across the organisation. Step into a position where your regulated procurement expertise will be celebrated and your ideas will drive innovation and make a genuine difference to major programmes and projects. If you're ready to take ownership, collaborate with talented professionals, and leave a lasting legacy, this is the role for you.

In this influential position, you will take the helm at leading cutting-edge procurement strategies, that meet the regulations but still result in robust, high-value contracts, supporting the wider vision of the organisation.

  • Forge strong relationships with senior stakeholders, delving into business requirements and matching them with a clear-eyed understanding of market capability and capacity. Your visionary insight will shape inventive supply solutions and forward-thinking market plans, helping the organisation achieve a powerful and unified stance in the marketplace.
  • Take centre stage in awarding contracts and negotiating pivotal contract variations, within the regulations, on behalf of National Highways, directly impacting the future of the organisation.
  • Collaborate with contract experts, harnessing their knowledge to overcome complex procurement challenges, ensuring your strategies are watertight and future-ready.
  • Stay ahead of the curve by keeping your finger on the pulse of legislative changes, industry trends, and market dynamics, using your insight to inform and evolve departmental strategies alongside the Senior Procurement Manager

About you.

  • A deep, hands-on understanding of the end-to-end procurement process, as well as in depth knowledge of Procurement Act 23 and Procurement Contract Regulations 2015 and the associated procurement policy notes that underpin the procurement environment.
  • Proven expertise in market analysis and engagement, enabling you to develop approaches that meet - and exceed - business needs.
  • A flair for creating and launching compelling tender packs (ITT, RFQ, and beyond) that excite the market and attract the best suppliers.
  • Experience with developing and rolling out innovative partnership contract models, particularly NEC, would be a real bonus.
  • Professional procurement qualifications-such as CIPS-or a passionate commitment to achieving them.
  • Outstanding stakeholder management skills, enabling you to build strong, lasting relationships right across the business.
