Leeds Beckett University has a fantastic opportunity to deliver an exciting and innovative Knowledge Transfer Partnership ( KTP ) project to develop and embed a Supply Chain Engagement Toolkit, ultimately increasing the depth and breadth of contracting SMEs engaged in public procurement within the construction sector.

Working with YORhub, a collaboration of Leeds City, Sheffield City, North Yorkshire and East Riding of Yorkshire Councils, the KTP project will fulfil their strategic aim to address national challenges of supply chain engagement by increasing the number and diversity of engaged SMEs, resulting in increased efficiency and service delivery in this sector.

The successful candidate will work with teams across YORhub and key stakeholders and have the support of an outstanding multi-disciplinary academic team from Leeds Beckett University.
You will work at the front end of the lifecycle to develop supply chain insights and strategies that build innovate and diverse supply chain solutions. Current supply chain practices and processes will be examined, with an intent to enhance the existing digital platform. Ultimately functional improvements will be identified and embedded, enhancing delivery from the supply chain across the construction industry.

The role presents the successful candidate with wide-ranging experience and an excellent development opportunity to lead a project across a range of business functions, working with a range of internal and external stakeholders. There is genuine potential to be employed by YORhub post-project.

YORhub was established in 2008, and over the last 15 years become an industry leader in public sector procurement using collaborative construction to maximise social value benefits and deliver best value. Their frameworks continue to deliver core values of economic regeneration, efficiency, supply chain engagement and sustainability.

Around 90% of our KTP project leaders end up being offered permanent roles within the business at the end of the project, allowing you to continue climbing the career ladder and becoming an industry leader of tomorrow.

Leeds Beckett University also offer all of our KTP project leaders the opportunity to study for a FULLY FUNDED
higher degree, so if you want to add to your educational profile, this would be the perfect opportunity.

We need an enthusiastic, self-motivated person bringing not only a Bachelor's degree (2.1 or higher) in Business
Management / Supply Chain Management / Project or Construction Management or similar with project management capabilities in order to manage a multi-faceted project. A strong analytical background is required, with the ability to a culture of innovation to develop the optimal solution for YORhub and their stakeholders.

You will be well supported by academic experts at Leeds Beckett and colleagues at YORhub but you need to be curious, excited about the project challenges and prepared to involve yourself in all aspects of a business.

This will be a challenging role and for the right candidate will present an excellent opportunity to make a tangible difference to the business, grow their own skill set and experience and with a very realistic chance of permanent employment at the end of the project.

To arrange an informal discussion about this post, please contact Rosi Newman at r.j.newman@leedsbeckett.ac.uk .

The project provides dedicated budgets to support training and development (£2k pa) alongside opportunities to access the university's pension scheme, staff benefits and discounts, staff training and development programmes as well as high level support from expert Leeds Beckett academics. The university also offers candidates the opportunity to study for a higher degree (MRes, MPhil or PhD) with a fee waiver in place.

There is a travel and subsistence budget included in the project.

Closing date: Thursday 23rd May 2024 (23:59)

Interview date: A two-stage interview process will be held on the 6th and 13th June 2024 (dates may be subject to change)
