East London Waste Authority (ELWA) is the authority responsible for waste treatment and disposal in four East London boroughs. We pride ourselves on being a flexible, agile, and innovative organisation, and we are looking for the right individual to make a huge difference to the future of East London’s waste management services.
ELWA’s waste services are currently operated under one Private Finance Initiative (PFI) contract, which expires in December 2027 and we are now transforming the way in which these services will be delivered in the future. We have established the Procurement and Contract Expiry Programme (PACE Programme) to manage, under one programme, the complex demobilisation of the existing contract and the procurement of the future services. This is one of the first large scale waste PFI contracts to expire nationally and this role could be a career defining moment for the right person given that many other organisations will want to learn from our experience in the future. You will be a significant player in designing and implementing the procurement processes to replace the current contract and in promoting best value, social value, efficiency and reducing our environmental impact. The role is well suited to either a project manager, who is looking to develop experience in complex waste procurements and be involved in the expiry of a large scale PFI project; or a waste professional, who is looking to develop experience in complex procurement projects.
