Bid evaluation & award

- Serve as the external communicator in negotiations with contractors and suppliers, leading negotiations and making commercial recommendations.
- Identify and mitigate commercial and contractual risks.
- Draft, redline, and negotiate commercial terms and conditions partnering with Legal and other departments.
- Maintain a library of standard templates, fallback positions, and a negotiation playbook in coordination with Legal.
- Coordinate contract execution: signature routing, execution, and distribution of fully executed agreements.
Supplier & risk management
- Identify, prequalify, and onboard new vendors; maintain qualification and approved-supplier status.
- Manage EPC/supplier performance through scorecards and periodic business reviews.
- Identify and mitigate commercial and contractual risk across the lifecycle
Requirements
- 4+ years of contract management, commercial, or procurement experience, including at least 2 years working directly with EPC or construction contracts.

- Demonstrated experience leading commercial negotiations of high-value EPC, construction, or supply agreements.
- Hands-on experience drafting, redlining, and administering commercial agreements, with working command of key commercial terms (payment/milestones, LDs, warranties, indemnification, limitation of liability, insurance, change orders, termination).
- Familiarity with EPC/construction services agreement structures.
- Strong cross-functional collaboration with delivery, engineering, finance, development, and legal teams.
- Bachelor’s degree in construction management, business, finance, supply chain, engineering, economics, or a related field or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
