**Job summary**:
We are looking for a Contracts Lead to join our Parliamentary Commercial Directorate (PCD).

The UK Parliament sits at the heart of our democracy and system of Government in the UK. Comprised of two Houses (the Lords and the Commons) UK Parliament works on behalf of UK citizens to check and challenge the work of Government, make and shape effective laws, and debate/make decisions on the big issues of the day. This role sits within PCD.

This Directorate is responsible for commercial strategy, commercial policy and standards, procurement delivery and contract & supplier management support across the organisation and plays a key role in the operation of the Houses. The PCD team sits within the House of Lords but is a bicameral service and supports both the Lords and the House of Commons. You will have the opportunity to work as part of a growing and ambitious function committed to delivering to both Houses, the goods and services required, when they are needed and at best value for the taxpayer.

You will be joining PCS at an exciting time. Over the coming 2 years we plan to undertake significant changes aimed at increasing our impact across the Parliament. This comes on top of continuing to ensure the value for money from our nearly £1bn in annual spend and supporting transformational projects across both organisations and our estate, including the Palace of Westminster itself which is a UNECSO world heritage site.
