The Role:
Lay the groundwork to build a skilled contingent team
To do our best for over 300,000 residents we need temporary workers to fill all sorts of roles – from social workers to building surveyors. As our Contracts Specialist, you’ll take care of all the contract arrangements, ensuring they’re effective, consistent, and value for money.
It’s a newly created role where you’ll have the chance to develop a whole new area of our resourcing service. Using your expertise to shape the way we work, you’ll help us build a talent pool that’s good value, skilled and diverse.
Day to day, you’ll lead our approach to procurement and contract management, following best practice. You’ll then work with HR colleagues to provide hiring managers with customer-focused resourcing solutions. We’ll be relying on you to provide the specialist knowledge that this kind of challenge demands: advice on the use of temporary workers, plus analysis of market trends, salary benchmarking and regulatory requirements.
