The Student Loans Company is a non-profit making government-owned organisation who provide loans and grants to students in universities and colleges in the UK.

Since 1989, we have enabled our customers to invest in their futures by delivering secure, accurate and efficient assessment, payment and repayment services.


We are now embarking on a transformation journey of our commercial function, and we are seeking a Commercial Business Partner to join us at this exciting time as we design and implement a future-facing operating model.


As a Commercial Business Partner, you will be responsible for building strong partnerships with your nominated SLC Directorates and will drive towards enabling customer satisfaction.

You will provide advice and guidance and deliver end-to-end commercial solutions.

The role requires you to be confident in using analysis, demand intelligence and market engagement to advise on route-to-buy options, procurement processes, supplier relationship management and commercial contract management.

You will support the development of customer strategies, helping to shape their commercial requirements and deliver high quality outputs, risk control and value for money for all contracts under your management.


In the role you will engage with and influence senior stakeholders to achieve strong commercial planning, assurance and collaborative working, and to develop and implement effective commercial strategies.

You will be expected to ensure all commercial activity within your portfolio fully aligns with the Directorate/SLC strategies; that all activity is fully compliant with internal and external governance requirements; that commercial risks are fully understood and mitigated; and that value for money is maximised throughout the contract lifecycle for the UK Taxpayer.

Critical to this role is the ability to listen, interpret, influence, negotiate, inspire and challenge.

You will have excellent senior stakeholder engagement experience and extensive complex and fast paced procurement delivery experience in a public sector environment.

You will possess excellent leadership and delegation skills, significant staff management experience within a challenging environment, and an MCIPS accreditation or equivalent qualification or related experience.


If this sounds like you and you would like to be part of a dynamic team working to unlock opportunity for future generations, then we would love to hear from you.

Please send a tailored CV and covering letter, highlighting your skills and experience pertinent to the role.
