Paisley, United Kingdom Scotland Excel Full time
Scotland Excel is an award-winning Centre of Procurement Expertise providing a wide range of procurement, commissioning, consultancy, and learning and development services for our members.

Want to apply Read all the information about this position below, then hit the apply button.

Since 2008, we have helped to establish procurement as an effective driver for local and national economic growth and wellbeing. Our £2bn portfolio of collaborative contracts supports the delivery of savings, social value, community benefits, fair work practices and environmental policy, and covers a wide range of public services including construction, roads, transport, environment, corporate and education.

Scotland Excel also develops and manages arrangements which support the commissioning of care services for children and adults. Our national care contracts are developed in partnership with care professionals, including care providers, to support person-centred outcomes embedded within national policy.

We also provide procurement and consultancy services to help our members get the most from their procurement resources, ranging from ad-hoc tendering support through to transformation programmes and strategic procurement partnerships.

The Scotland Excel Academy offers applied learning programmes leading to accredited qualifications in procurement, leadership and management, coaching and mentoring, project management and business analysis, as well as short courses and workshops.

Scotland Excel is a non-profit organisation working with members from across the public sector including local authorities, health and social care partnerships, housing associations, and other public and third sector organisations.

About this Role

This post has been created to provide support to the Scotland Excel’s membership. The focus of the role will be working with technical and procurement teams in councils and housing associations across Scotland. The post holder will provide support to ensure our customers can make most effective use of collaborative procurement routes when managing capital projects. The support will also extend to some recurring revenue spend in specialist areas.

This post expands the support offered to include call off support to aid councils, housing associations and other members to make call offs from frameworks for complex project work, most commonly capital investment projects. It is anticipated the primary focus would be on the more complex services and works contracts awarded under Scotland Excel frameworks. These frameworks tend to be established under NEC4 or SBCC contracting terms which establish the overarching terms that will support to call off contracts formed per project.

By dedicating resource to working with member officers, Scotland Excel can enhance the effective use of established frameworks, to ensure the full potential of each arrangement is well understood and utilised locally. The principal opportunity created from this role is to improve the customer experience when using frameworks to develop complex contractual arrangements to deliver projects.

Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates who are able to demonstrate an understanding and experience of working in a complex project management environment in a relevant sector.

What we can offer you

As well as a competitive salary, you will have access to all the benefits of working for a public sector organisation including flexible working options such as a 9-day fortnight, hybrid working, a defined benefits pension scheme, generous holiday allowance, a staff benefit scheme and a range of other initiatives which reflect our commitment to creating a positive work-life balance for all our employees.

Full details of the benefits of working at Scotland Excel can be found on our website.
