Procurement Associate, 1–5 PQE, £65,000–£95,000, Tier 1 International firm, Manchester The public procurement team of a Tier 1 international firm is growing its Manchester advisory practice, with room for an associate at 1–5 PQE.
Few procurement practices operate at this level - Chambers top band, and on the call list for the country's most significant mandates. The real draw is breadth. The advisory work runs across nationally and internationally significant projects: government contracts, transport (rail, bus, ports and aviation), utilities (water, electricity, gas and heat), defence, healthcare and regeneration.
No narrow diet. Because that work feeds multi-disciplinary projects led by the IT, outsourcing, transport, utilities, construction, real estate and defence teams, you get the cross-team exposure to carve out a genuine specialism early - rather than waiting years for it.
You'll also work side-by-side with specialist procurement disputes lawyers, feeding technical and strategic input into contentious matters - from behind-the-scenes settlements to major court cases - so you see how the advice holds up once it's tested.
If you want high-quality procurement work with the breadth to build a name in it, this is a rare one. Apply online or contact Chris Barr at QED Legal
