As the Agency Framework Manager, you will be responsible for designing, implementing and managing our first procurement framework for agencies, consultants and freelancers, with a remit to maximise value for money, minimise internal transaction costs and deliver maximum impact for the RSPB.

• Work collaboratively with the Procurement team on the tendering process for the creation of the agency framework, working with subject matter experts to ensure we have the right suppliers to meet the needs of the organisation.
• Develop user friendly templates and documentation to make the process of engaging an agency as clear and simple as possible.
• Provide support and guidance for internal teams with the creation of effective briefs, making sure the information we’re providing to agencies is appropriate.
• Provide support and guidance for internal teams during the ‘call off’ process for individual pieces of work, helping to navigate conversations and identify solutions/next steps.
• Provide ongoing supplier management, conducting regular reviews with suppliers and internal teams. Putting in place relevant recommendations to ensure all parties are getting maximum benefit.
• Act as the main point of escalation for agencies and internal key stakeholders, working quickly to resolve any issues and find solutions. 
• Have oversight of agency spend across the organisation. Ensure agreed spend has gone through the appropriate prioritisation frameworks, that budgets are appropriate and that we are getting best value for money.
