3 weeks ago

Gloucester, United Kingdom EDF Limited Full time

**The Opportunity**

Are you a strategic and innovative thinker with the ability to navigate areas of contention, manage strategic risk, and bring decision-makers together under complex and evolving matrix management arrangements? Are you someone with a strong stakeholder focus, skilled at gaining trust and building confidence with stakeholders, governance, and oversight groups through open communication and simplification of complex commercial issues?

If so, we’re looking for you to embark on a dynamic journey as our next Head of Transfer & Deconstruction Commercial Strategy. In this role, you’ll be accountable for shaping and executing a Commercial Strategy for the Transfer and Deconstruction Programmes, ensuring adherence to contractual and legal standards and enabling the successful transfer of the AGR Nuclear Power Stations to the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA). Being focused on minimising commercial risks, seizing opportunities, delivering value and supporting the successful delivery of the Transfer and Deconstruction Programmes is paramount to this role.

**Applications for this role close: Sunday 10th December 2023**

**Pay, benefits and culture.**

We offer a competitive salary, bonus and pension scheme with terms and conditions covered by the EDF Nuclear Generation Personal Contract. The starting salary will be dependent on your existing salary, competence, experience, and qualifications. We promote work/life balance through a flexible hybrid work arrangement, spanning 37 hours per week. The primary designated work location is at Gloucester Business Park with flexibility of attending other sites/stations on a business need basis.

At EDF, everyone’s welcome. We strive to create an inclusive and diverse environment where everyone has a voice and where you feel confident being yourself. We’re committed to equality, diversity, and inclusion. We’d like our future workforce to have an equal gender balance, represent a broad mix of people from minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+, those with a disability and supporting social mobility.

We’ll value the difference you bring and offer opportunities for you to thrive and succeed.

**What you'll be doing**

In this role, you will be accountable for the development and implementation of a commercial strategy for the Transfer and Deconstruction Programmes. Your responsibilities will involve considering timescales, costs, and identifiable risks, while also taking ownership to proactively resolve any issues that may arise. Collaborating closely with Directors and respective Programme leads, you will play a key role in setting commercial guardrails, principles and commercial governance for Transfer and Deconstruction programmes, ensuring delivery within agreed parameters.

Other roles and responsibilities also include:

- Collaborate closely with the NRS commercial transfer team to identify synergies and establish seamless site contract support processes, delivering value to the taxpayer.
- Collaborate closely with the Head of Client & Contracts to ensure the Option Agreement contract responsibilities are managed and delivered
- Define EDF Energy's position in commercial areas, addressing EDF risks post-transfer and land boundaries.
- Oversee disputes, actively managing resolutions and any required escalation and intervention.
- Establish a contract novation process aligned with the EDF, NDA and Nuclear Restoration Services (NRS) commercial strategies. Work closely with the Supply Chain teams to ensure successful and timely contract terminations/novations in the line with the agreed requirements with NRS and NDA.
- Provide stakeholders with reporting and progress updates, escalating critical issues appropriately.
- Implement programme commercial governance and delegations across EDF’s Nuclear Decommissioning roles supporting deconstruction work delivery and the subsequent transfer model.
- Ensure understanding, planning, and management of supply chain risks, particularly those associated with the transfer model and contract novation strategy, on an enterprise and site-by-site basis.
- Own the commercial Lead and Learn process, focusing on seamless transfer objectives and demonstrating Reasonable Prudent Operator (RPO) during work planning and execution.

**Who you are.**

In this pivotal role, we seek an individual whose resilience shines in navigating challenges, fostering stakeholder relationships with ease, and thriving in uncertainty. An openness to change and a pragmatic approach to navigate difficult situations, making yourself an invaluable asset to our dynamic team. If you're ready to bring strength, resilience, and adaptability to the forefront, we invite you to join us in shaping a future of innovation and success in this role.

We’re ideally looking for you to hold a degree or equivalent qualification however, this is not essential as long as you have relevant experience and background in a role like this or similar.
