There will be an opportunity to tailor your portfolio according to your experience and aspirations and opportunity to be involved in management of the third party contractors.

You’ll manage and develop a variety of third-party services to support business strategies, running end to end procurement processes and work closely with stakeholders to deliver key projects. This includes ensuring that third-party entities adhere to our health, safety, environment, and quality standards.

Your role extends to guaranteeing quality delivery of goods and services within agreed costs and timeframes, managing risks through effective contracts, and cultivating professional relationships with key suppliers and contractors to mitigate potential challenges.

This role will suit someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment whilst staying organised, enjoys exploring different approaches and thinking on their feet. You’ll also have excellent communication, stakeholder and supplier management skills.

We’re invested in your career development and are proud to offer diverse and interesting career opportunities across EDF.
