    My client is a UK government research entity responsible for the development of fusion energy. It operates as an executive non-departmental public body of the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.

    You provide advice to senior managers on contractual strategies, ranging from traditional contracts to alliances, partnerships, and alternative funding strategies.

    This includes evaluating bids, ensuring value for money is always obtained, negotiating appropriate commercial agreements, and resolving claims and disputes.

    Overall, you will be the port of call for all general support, advice, and coaching/delivery of training on commercial matters whilst contributing to the evolution of the organisation's commercial terms and conditions, policies, and working practices.

    The ideal candidate is working towards their MCIPS qualification, experienced in public sector procurement, and understands OJEU. You should have a good grasp of procurement categories and strategies, excellent interpersonal skills, commercial acumen, and negotiation skills.

    You will understand customer and project requirements, be committed to nurturing scientific and technological excellence, open to new ways of working, and enthusiastic about the organisation's mission.

    You will be a creative problem solver, working at the frontier of knowledge, and challenging the status quo in a safe and inclusive manner.
