This is a fantastic opportunity to shape how we work, influence strategic decisions and support our growth ambitions across the industry.

What will you be responsible for?

Leading and managing the Contract Officer team, ensuring effective resource allocation and supporting business growth
Managing the Permission to Proceed approval system, preparing reports and workflows for project tenders and framework opportunities
Providing expert contractual advice throughout the project lifecycle, from tender stage through to delivery and completion
Negotiating and resolving contract terms and conditions, liaising with Kier Legal and external stakeholders as needed

Lead and support Business Unit training on contract awareness and specific contract requirements

What are we looking for?

This role of Lead Contract Officer is great for you if:

You possess in-depth knowledge of various contract forms
You have strong negotiation skills and can influence effectively across all levels of an organisation
You're able to build collaborative relationships and support your team's development and wellbeing
You have current knowledge of construction and/or facilities management law and can apply specialist legal and technical advice to protect commercial positions

Diversity and inclusion

Making Kier a diverse and inclusive place to work is a huge priority for us. We're proud of the steps we've taken so far, but we know we must always do more. Our employees are key in shaping Kier's diversity and inclusion initiatives and our people have made a huge impact on how we work, by using their experiences to shape our policies. You can see our D&I action plan here.

As a Disability Confident employer, we will ensure that a fair and proportionate number of disabled applicants that meet the minimum criteria for this role will be offered an interview.

Due to the nature of this role, you will also be required to complete an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service Check (applicants with convictions will be treated on a case-by-case basis. We do not discriminate based on an applicant's conviction history or the details of any convictions disclosed to us). Some roles may also be subject to further pre-employment checks.

We look forward to seeing your application to #joinkier.
