You’ll work closely with commercial and technical stakeholders, and support the organisation through critical vendor selections and transitions within tight timescales.

Develop and write contract schedules, service schedules, and SLA frameworks—ensuring contractual structures are robust, enforceable and fit for purpose

Support the transition from numerous smaller suppliers to a simplified, strategic supplier base

Engage effectively with senior stakeholders across technical, commercial and operational teams

Operate successfully in a changing organisation, building trust, leaning into challenges and taking ownership of problem areas

Required Experience & Skills

Significant commercial and procurement experience within technology categories

Proven background in technology supplier transition programmes, ideally involving large‑scale onshore/offshore delivery models (e.g AD&M or wider technology services)

Demonstrable experience working with major “Big 4 / Big Tech” suppliers

Strong data analysis skills, including the ability to interrogate contract data, incident reports, application inventories and other inputs to create clarity from incomplete or inconsistent information
