About the role 

As a Senior Commercial Advisor you will be working in the Procurement and Commercial Team supporting colleagues across the organisation. You will be responsible for providing expert commercial advice supporting the Council to deliver its Commissioning and Commercial Change Programme. This is a fast paced role and no two days will be the same. 


You will be joining a friendly and experienced team which works on a hybrid basis, from home or at our purpose-built, state of the art offices in Alconbury Weald. We get together at least a couple of times a month for collaborative working and when required (if you’d prefer to work in the office more regularly, you’re able to do so). Additional face-to-face time in the office will be provided to support with your induction, training and development. There may also be the occasional requirement to travel around the County and beyond to meet the requirements of our clients.

Interviews are expected to take place during the week beginning 20th October and will be in person at New Shire Hall.

For more information or to chat about this opportunity please contact Clare Ellis, Head of Procurement and Commercial at clare.ellis@cambridgeshire.gov.uk
