About the role

and about you

Hampton Court Palace / HM Tower of London, with some flexible / hybrid working available  

1 year fixed term - 5 days per week  

Historic Royal Palaces (HRP) is a team of people who love and care for six remarkable buildings, preserving them for future generations and creating a space for spirits to stir and be stirred. 

This is an exciting time to join HRP where we are pursuing a new strategy to become a charity for everyone. Our focus is on extending reach, widening access, and inclusive history. We can’t do this without the fundamental key support of functions such as our procurement and contracts team in providing the necessary professional advice to teams in their work, protecting our income and expenditure across the organisation and ensuring best value for money is achieved.

We are looking for someone to join our team with a remit covering Procurement, Property Management and Commercial contracts across HRP, led by the Head of Procurement and Contracts.

Your key responsibility will be leading on procurement and contracting activity covering an eclectic mix of categories such as marketing, uniforms, visitor catering, live interpretation and public event production, consultancy, professional services and training to name but a few. 

This involves working across all our sites, namely HM Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, Kensington Palace, Kew Palace, Banqueting House and Hillsborough Castle and Gardens. 

The role will focus on higher value and more complex work and involve providing a professional, flexible and efficient service including leading the management of procurement processes and contract negotiations, end to end. 

This is a demanding role and strong planning, flexibility and multi-tasking skills, stakeholder management, commercial awareness and contract drafting abilities are needed to ensure success in this role, as is an awareness of framework contract offerings from providers such as Crown Commercial Services and the London Universities Purchasing Consortium.

Staff Management experience and the ability to develop talent will also be key, as the role includes line management of the Procurement Advisor. 

You will have the opportunity to work flexibly across different sites (including a measure of home / hybrid working) with a choice of Hampton Court Palace or HM Tower of London as an office base. 

Having experience of public sector procurement is essential as is being MCIPS qualified unless extensive and deep practical experience and knowledge can be demonstrated.
