Key Responsibilities

  • Manage contract variations, extensions, amendments and claims processes.
  • Support procurement and sourcing activities in accordance with company procedures.
  • Coordinate tendering, evaluation and contract award processes.
  • Engage with internal stakeholders and external suppliers to ensure timely delivery of contract outcomes.
  • Monitor contractor performance and compliance with contractual obligations.
  • Maintain accurate contract records and documentation.
  • Identify commercial risks and support mitigation strategies.
  • Assist with commercial reporting and contract governance activities.

Ideal Candidate

For Senior-Level Candidates

  • 10+ years of contracts, procurement or commercial management experience.
  • Proven ability to independently manage high-value and complex contract packages.
  • Strong negotiation and stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience supporting major capital projects, maintenance programmes, or offshore operations would be highly regarded.

For Mid-Level Candidates

  • Around 5 years of contracts, procurement or commercial administration experience.
  • Strong understanding of contract lifecycle management and commercial processes.
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent organisational and communication skills.
  • Experience within oil & gas, energy, infrastructure, marine or heavy industry sectors would be advantageous.
