Role Type: Permanent

Location: Flexible within UK, with occasional travel where required

Salary: £50,000 Full Time Equivalent

Hours: Part Time, 25 hours per week

Security Clearance: Must have or be eligible to hold Baseline Security Clearance (BPSS)


Evolve Commercial is digital procurement consultancy that provides commercial and procurement services to help our clients successfully deliver their complex and security-sensitive technology programmes. Formed in 2020, we are an exciting, fast-growing, and vibrant company who are looking for a Business Manager to help us scale to the next level in 2024 and beyond.


We can promise that working at Evolve is refreshingly different to working at your typical large corporation or consultancy. You’ll have the opportunity to play an integral part in the company and will participate in a complete range of important business activities, whilst influencing company development from day one. To thrive in this environment, we only ask that you bring a high degree of pro-activeness, an independent attitude and a flexible approach. If change and making a difference excites you, then Evolve could be the right career move for you.


We are fully digitally native and embrace the freedoms of modern, flexible working arrangements. We understand the challenges of balancing home and work life, so we promote a progressive approach to managing our business alongside the responsibilities of home life. This role will be critical to help achieving the outcomes that deliver the best possible value for our clients and our company, as efficiently as possible.


Evolve is a strong, close-knit team, who shares in great fun and great work. We strongly value the social aspects of working as part of a great team, which can be a challenge with remote working, so we enjoy regular face-to-face team workshops and social events.


We are growing this business together – so whether this is the kind of fresh venture you’ve always wanted, you’ve come to a point in your career where you need something new and exciting, or if you feel like you want to test your skills in a new environment - then you will never find a better time to join us than right now.


The Role

We are seeking a motivated and experienced Business Manager to join our team on a part-time basis. This role is designed for individuals who require flexibility to balance work with other commitments, and as such you can work with us to agree core hours that balance your needs with those of the business. As a Business Manager, you will play a crucial role in overseeing and improving our business operations, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness as we grow.
