Client

The client is embarking upon a significant capacity expansion program across all of its 4 sites in the UK, USA, Netherlands, and Germany.


In the US, a significant volume of work is planned over the next 10 years to fulfill order books and meet that future demand. These works include enrichment plants, other major projects, and supporting infrastructure. The US is strategically important given that the North American market makes up a significant proportion of the client’s order book for the coming years.

The company established a capital projects department which is an organization that sits at a group level (i.e. across all the sites) to deliver expansion projects, other major projects, and business development projects, with the idea being to standardize the approach to project delivery (and the supporting functions, governance, and approvals). Within this capital projects department, there is a ‘Contract Management’ function; the majority of which are based in the UK. This function is now looking to upscale to support additional sites, with a key objective to provide specialist Contract Management resources in the US.

working across several cross-functional teams/stakeholders including planning, engineering, procurement, legal, HR, steering groups, and governance boards

working as part of the Contract Management lead team to ensure adequate resources, training, compliance, governance


Qualifications / Requirements

12+ years’ experience in Contracts Management, Commercial Management, and/or Quantity Surveying
