About the opportunity – due to internal promotion!

You’ll manage and administer Transpower’s published tender processes from release to market through to supplier communications and award notifications. As a central point of coordination between Transpower and suppliers, you’ll help ensure tender activity is fair, transparent, well documented and aligned with our procurement policies and procedures.

This is a role for someone who enjoys variety, structure, accuracy and working with a wide range of people. You’ll help internal stakeholders understand the right process to follow, maintain clear records and audit trails, and support continual improvement across tender administration, systems and reporting.
