• Guiding and supporting key stakeholders across Engineering to ensure delivery of best practice solutions
• Assess and present opportunities for external and internal investment for future test needs
• Responsibility for the external test activity sourcing from definition of request through to delivery
• Vendor contract operational management including:
o Analysis and reporting (commercial along with associated KPIs/SLAs)
o Technical and commercial negotiation
o Process review and adherence
o Compliance with standards and accreditation
o Identification of new test facilities to meet cost/capability requirements.
o Test facility sourcing discussions

WHAT YOU’LL NEED


• Able to plan, manage and execute complex projects on time and within budget.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to converse at all levels of the organisation and with external suppliers/customers.
• Strong negotiation and analysis skills.
• Strong communication and presentation skills, able to develop and deliver simple messages and conclusions
