This is a key leadership role within the organisation's infrastructure, where you will also have responsibility for communicating and presenting to executive level stakeholders within the business. You will also have responsibility of commercial aspects of vendor agreements, where you will be effectively managing supplier relationships, financial budgets and contract terms of service.

Experience and skills required:

In return you will receive a competitive salary and great benefits package which includes bonus, car allowance, and private medical care.

The role is currently fully remote based, but it is expected that you would be able to be in the Edinburgh office 3 days per week later in the year once restrictions are lifted.
