London, Greater London, United Kingdom Adecco UK Limited Full time

Adecco UK Limited are delighted to be working with a London Borough Council to find a skilled Transport Contracts and Performance Manager. The team is responsible for delivering ambitious and innovative transport projects. As Transport Contracts and Performance Manager, you will play a key role in developing and managing key contracts arising from the Council’s Electric Vehicles and Kerbside Strategies, as well as monitoring broader programme delivery and performance outcomes across the division.

You will be managing a team of officers who will assist you in achieving these goals. Initially, key contracts will include those falling under a new Transport Framework, as well as contracts for the operation of Electric Vehicle Charging Points, e-bikes, and car clubs. By building good relationships with project managers, suppliers, and the Council’s procurement team, contracts will be closely managed and monitored, ensuring that all parties are adhering to their obligations.

You will be responsible for reviewing and improving programme management processes and documentation for the division, ensuring adherence to effective governance and quality assurance. Alongside this, you will oversee the monitoring of performance and project outcomes, with high-quality reporting enabling data-led decision making.

Key Responsibilities:

  1. To manage a number of contracts from across the service on a day-to-day basis, helping to improve compliance, identify efficiency improvements, maximise revenues, generate cost savings, and improve public perception;
  2. To develop and maintain processes and systems to ensure that appropriate contract management information is provided and both parties fulfil their contractual obligations;
  3. To ensure that key updates and information are made accessible to the senior management team, using and developing IT systems to increase efficiency.
  4. To develop new/updated contracts as needs arise and agree a programme of procurement activity to ensure that all tender packs and associated contracts are drafted and negotiated effectively, closely reflecting service requirements.
  5. To assist and facilitate in all aspects of contract procurement, in collaboration with colleagues from the procurement team, providing technical and professional advice as necessary to project managers.
  6. Develop a good working relationship with the Council’s procurement and legal teams to ensure compliance with regulations, that the contract is fit for purpose, and to exercise change control notices (i.e. variations in contract) when appropriate.

Programme and Performance Monitoring:

  1. Ensure full compliance with the Council’s Programme and Project Management System, overseeing the review and development of new processes, templates, and other documentation as required.
  2. Ensure timely and quality submission of regularly updated project management documentation across the division, including tracker systems, Change Control, Project Summary Reports, Project Initiation Documents, and business cases.
  3. To identify areas for improvement based on outputs from contract and performance monitoring, developing and implementing solutions in consultation with colleagues and members, seeking innovation where possible.
  4. Lead the identification and evaluation of risks, issues, dependencies, and constraints associated with the projects, escalating where appropriate. Where necessary, develop, agree, and implement solutions to overcome these.
  5. Oversee the production of high-quality regular performance reports across the Transport & Parking division, informed by the establishment and maintenance of a data dashboard.
