HM Tower of London / Hampton Court Palace with some flexible / hybrid working available
Historic Royal Palaces (HRP) is a team of people who love and care for six remarkable buildings, preserving them for future generations and creating a space for spirits to stir and be stirred.
This is an exciting time to join HRP where we are pursuing a new strategy to become a charity for everyone. Our focus is on extending reach, widening access, and inclusive history. We can’t do this without the fundamental key support of functions such as our procurement and contracts team in providing the necessary professional advice to teams in their work, protecting our income and expenditure across the organisation and ensuring best value for money is achieved.
We are looking for someone to join our team with a remit covering Procurement, Property Management and Commercial contracts across HRP, led by the Head of Procurement and Contracts.
Your key responsibility will be focusing on procurement and contracting activity covering IT, Digital and Maintenance & Facilities.
This involves working across all our sites, namely HM Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, Kensington Palace, Kew Palace, Banqueting House and Hillsborough Castle and Gardens.
The role will focus on higher value and more complex work and involve providing a professional, flexible and efficient service including leading the management of procurement processes and contract negotiations, end to end.
Strong planning, flexibility and multi-tasking skills, stakeholder management and commercial awareness are needed to ensure success in this role, as is an awareness of framework contract offerings from providers such as Crown Commercial Services and the London Universities Purchasing Consortium.
You will have the opportunity to work flexibly across different sites (including a measure of home / hybrid working) with a choice of HM Tower of London or Hampton Court Palace as an office base.
Having experience of public sector procurement would be an advantage as would being MCIPS (or equivalent) qualified or along the pathway.
Salary: £49,960 per annum
Closing date: 23.55pm on 28th February 2025
Interviews: tbc
