- As appropriate, support the strategic and operational framework management and re-procurement of frameworks by organising engagement events/meetings, and collating reports, risk logs and communications to senior stakeholders/suppliers. Undertake business as usual framework activities such as those relating to procurements, performance, compliance, reporting and transparency.
- Ensure that contracts awarded within their contractual delegation are fit for purpose, successfully handed over to the appropriate Contract Manager
- Ensure risks and issues are anticipated and identified and that mitigation actions are defined and managed.

For an in-depth insight into the role please refer to the Role Profile.
