Role Summary: This is an opportunity to work on some of EWR Co’s most strategically significant and high-value procurements. You will advise across the procurement lifecycle, from procurement strategy, market engagement and ITTs through to evaluation, award and contract management. EWR Co operates in a fast-paced, delivery-focused environment and our legal and commercial frameworks continue to evolve as the programme develops.
You will work closely with Commercial, project teams, senior stakeholders and experienced external lawyers, with real opportunity to take ownership of matters and help shape how procurement legal support works across EWR Co.
