Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Due to a relatively flat hierarchy, this role is more about delving deep into Commercial Contracts and becoming the best Officer and then Commercial and Contracts Manager that you can be, understanding the nuances of our projects and Governmental clients.
How you will contribute to the team…
- Initially working alongside the Commercial and Contracts Manager on multiple or single projects with the aim of being responsible for your own project(s) and becoming a Commercial and Contracts Manager
- Manage all allocated commercial and contractual aspects of contracts including the development of new opportunities, commercial and contractual support to bids, contractual agreements and changes.
- Work closely with key stakeholders to deliver profitable commercial and contractual solutions ensuring that commercial and contractual risks are mitigated and required governance is followed.
- Where required, work with Procurement to advise on key contractual obligations and risks within the allocated contracts and ensure flow down and mitigation accordingly.
About you?
- Enjoys a fast paced environment, untangling information and seeing how it impacts the real world contracts and commitments
- Procurement or Commercial and Contracts background with experience of negotiation and contract management activities.
- Experience of delivering high quality complex workload with supervision within a technical environment
- Excellent stakeholder management skills with the ability to interact and influence across a range of stakeholders
Not a 100% match? No worries! Airbus supports your personal growth with customised development solutions.
