Westminster, United Kingdom City of Westminster Council Full time

**About Us**:
**THE EXTRAORDINARY STORY OF AWARD-WINNING CARBON SAVINGS ON HIGHWAYS PROJECTS**

The Finance Team in Westminster City Council is a world of extraordinary stories, where we go above and beyond for our residents - in all sorts of pioneering ways. By being smart and courageous with the council’s finances we can achieve more for our residents and wider society, especially when working closely with other council departments.

Our approach to responsible procurement and the way we work collaboratively with our suppliers can bring significant benefits, including huge reductions in environmental impact.

Take the award-winning Kings Street footway scheme. This was the first scheme of its kind in the UK to switch all possible high carbon materials and equipment for zero and low carbon alternatives. This included using electric tools and excavators, low carbon foundations, concrete and paving and zero-emission deliveries to site. The result? a 79% carbon saving compared to traditional techniques.

And why does this success matter? Because Kings Street has formed a blueprint for future projects. Its success has been translated to five further paving schemes, which have achieved savings of up to 94% operational carbon against comparable sites. A subsequent resurfacing project in Third Avenue achieved another UK first in its use of 85% recycled material on the roadway. These schemes demonstrate that partnership working with our suppliers can help us meet the councils net zero carbon targets.

**The Role**:
As a Senior Commercial Officer - SRM Programme and Innovation, you can make your own powerful contribution. It’s a cross-cutting Procurement and Commercial role focused on delivering and improving communications.

As well as supporting the BAU - solving suppliers e-sourcing queries and helping with delivery plans - you’ll focus on finding and rolling out better methods and processes that bring us all closer together as we work to common goals.

There’ll be a particular focus on supplier journey and our approach to relationship management. Other core deliverables include our annual Departmental Service Plan and impact measurements, internal and intranet communications, and website content and training collateral.

We’ll also get you involved in developing our **Responsible Procurement and Commissioning Strategy**.

Please refer to the **Job Description** for more information.

**About You**:
A proven project manager, you’ll be used to working across teams and with colleagues of all levels. And alongside a good understanding of procurement, contracts and tenders - ideally within the public sector - it would help to have delivering training courses too.

Flexible and creative in your approach, and keen to continue developing in an environment that values professional growth, you’ll see this as an opportunity to grow. A chance to develop a reputation for providing pragmatic and informed advice across Westminster, that helps us exceed our goals for customer outcomes and value for money.

**What We Offer**:
Westminster is an amazing place. We are home to over 250,000 residents from all backgrounds, over 50,000 vibrant and vital businesses and three-quarters-of-a-million people work in Westminster. Westminster City Council’s strategy is to work towards a Fairer Westminster. A Fairer Westminster is one in which our communities are at the heart of our decision-making and help to determine the city’s future. By working directly with our communities and other partners, we can build a more inclusive city that celebrates our diverse communities, and where residents, workers and visitors from all backgrounds will feel welcome and safe.

As a forward-thinking Council we appreciate that people work in different ways, therefore our staff benefit from working a range of flexible working patterns as well as Agile working.
