The opportunity
We’re seeking a detail-driven Procurement & Commercial Manager to support a major offshore renewables programme. This role is contract- and documentation-focused: less about front-end negotiation, and more about internal coordination, drafting precision, and managing commercial risk across complex technical packages.
You’ll work closely with Procurement & Commercial, Legal, and Engineering to shape and maintain a robust contracting position, translating technical requirements into clear commercial language and ensuring consistency across contract suites.
What you’ll be doing
- Drafting, reviewing and heavily amending contract documents, ensuring accuracy and consistency throughout.
- Cross-comparing multiple versions of contract wording (redlines/mark‑ups) to identify material changes and implications.
- Converting technical drafting into commercial drafting without losing the engineering intent.
- Coordinating inputs across P&C, Legal and Engineering, maintaining version control and ensuring alignment to agreed positions.
- Identifying, coordinating and actively managing commercial and contractual risks (including tracking mitigations and ensuring they are reflected in documentation).
- Providing informed market positions based on prior experience with offshore supply chains and typical supplier stances.
- Supporting governance, approvals, and readiness for contract finalisation.
What We’re Looking For (essential)
- Strong experience in procurement/commercial/contract management within offshore wind or comparable offshore infrastructure.
- Highly structured, meticulous approach – comfortable working through complex technical contract drafting and detailed documentation.
- Practical experience with FIDIC Yellow Book (including significant amendments) and familiarity with LOGIC‑style terms or similar offshore contracting frameworks.
- Onshore and offshore experience (vital), with an understanding of how offshore delivery realities affect risk, obligations and contract administration.
- Experience working with or for key energy supply chain/EI‑type suppliers (e.g., offshore substation, export cable, major offshore EPC or equivalent).
- Confident stakeholder management – able to coordinate multiple internal contributors and keep documentation controlled and coherent.
Desirable
- A legal background or a strong legal/commercial grounding gained through hands‑on contracting roles.
- Direct exposure to offshore substation and export cable packages (supply/EPC/EPCI), including acceptance regimes, warranties, LDs, interface risk and change control.
- Experience supporting internal contract governance and approvals in large programmes.
How to apply
- Apply with your CV highlighting your experience with FIDIC/LOGIC‑style contracts.
- Relevant offshore project exposure.
- Examples of drafting/comparison/risk‑management work on technical packages.
