Bristol, United Kingdom UK Civil Service Full time

Job summary

The Senior Manager Core Business Contracting leads a team responsible for the end-to-end origination and completion of all contracts with our partners delivering grant-funded Affordable Housing in England.� The team is part of the Homes England Affordable Housing Grants directorate, responsible for delivery of 1,000s of affordable homes every year.��

This is a 12-month fixed term contract providing maternity leave cover.� Reporting to the Head of Provider Services, the post holder will lead the four-strong contracting operations team and will ensure partners including housing associations and house builders enter into the correct form of grant agreement with Homes England.� There is an emphasis on maintaining standardised terms and conditions with all our partners as well as, when appropriate and within risk appetite, agreeing contract variations.��

Job description

The job requires often fast-paced, close-working internally with our delivery and legal teams and externally, sometimes with lawyers and our partners.� It�s all about getting our partners into the right form of agreement in a timely way, ensuring they can get on with delivering affordable homes and giving Homes England the appropriate safeguards over its grant funding.��

The post holder must have a strong operational focus as well as the ability to highlight matters that have strategic implications for grant delivery and contracts; and contribute to their solution.� Team-working is vital so that our partners get a true end-to-end service.� The Senior Manager will work with our new business and delivery teams and closely with our onboarding and due diligence colleagues and a small team that leads on future contract development.��

it's all about working in a collaborative/flexible way that values diversity in experience and perspective to foster good decision making and problem solving within their team.��

This is a rare chance to shape the future of Affordable Housing in a national organisation with real social purpose.��

Person specification

Whilst our day job is to deliver a first-class contracting service to deliver affordable homes, you will be used to �spinning several plates� at once and will always be looking for ways to improve and innovate.

Delivering on a mission as bold as ours isn�t always easy. You will be resilient and comfortable managing stakeholders at a senior level and your discussions will always be shaped by a good understanding of the commercial and operational impact of what we do in the contracting operations team.� You will enjoy working in an innovative, fun and engaging way and be able to negotiate and persuade.��

You�ll understand how to manage colleagues and be able to demonstrate you can work with others as part of a team in a collaborative, inclusive way.��

Some of the contracting operations team are based in our London office.� So, while the postholder will be based outside London (Coventry [Birmingham], Northstowe or Bristol offices) it is essential that they must be able to travel into London on a regular basis to ensure those London-based staff are supported.��

A legal qualification is not required but it is essential that the postholder has prior experience of managing high-value and high volume contracting operations (not necessarily in housing) and the maintenance of standard terms and conditions.��

It is essential the postholder must be available to start work from July/August (exact date TBC) so that an operations hand over can be completed before the maternity leave commences.��
