Reading, Reading, United Kingdom AWE Full time
What if you could work with remarkable people on extraordinary things? What if the end result was something a little bit special? What if your role was mission critical?

For nearly 70 years, AWE has been at the forefront of nuclear weapons research and development. We have a critical mission: to provide the warheads for the UK's ultimate deterrent - Trident. We also use our unique skills to provide wider UK government with counter-terrorism and nuclear threat reduction solutions.

It takes a special sort of person to work at AWE. What if that person was you?

AWE has an exciting opportunity for a Principal Procurement Manager to join our growing team, focussing on the procurement of capital investment projects covering construction, site infrastructure improvements, and asset replacement, refurbishment, and demolition.

As an expert in the procurement of complex works and services, you will report into the Principal Procurement Lead, and lead a team of procurement professionals to develop and deliver strategic sourcing events and supplier relationship management, supporting one of the UK's largest and most strategic infrastructure investments over the next 15 years.

In the role, you will:
Manage and develop a team of 5 or more procurement professionals for your defined categories, as one of two Principal Procurement Managers, in a matrix environment.
Lead the development of AWE procurement strategy, market engagements, and tender execution, using collaborative and innovative procurement and contract strategies.
Be responsible for developing route to market solutions that adopt latest procurement thinking, ensuring compliance to procurement regulations and our commitments to equality, fairness, and transparency.
Lead the procurement of complex infrastructure solutions, including alliances and strategic partnerships.
Lead the development and implementation of relevant procurement processes, driving a culture that shares best practice and strives to continuously improve.
Ensure compliance with government procurement regulations.

We would love to hear from you if you are experienced in:
Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating complex contractual arrangements, preferably using a variety of pricing arrangements and incentive models under NEC contracts.
Reviewing, challenging, and providing ongoing oversight to tender, evaluation, and negotiation strategies, including subcontract provisions and selection.
Strategic category management, with an expert understanding of procurement practices.
Leading, motivating, and developing people.
Working in cross-functional teams across multiple programmes, acting as a procurement champion and role model and ensuring compliance with AWE's structure procurement processes.
Operating within a regulated procurement environment, complying with either the Public, Utilities or Defence and Security Public Contract Regulations.

You will also ideally be MCIPS qualified, or MCIPS Chartered.

Package: from £60,000 to £80,000 (depending on your suitability and level of experience)

Location - Reading
