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. A 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 / ESI-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.
