• Deep experience navigating public sector procurement frameworks (e.g., DOS6/7, GCloud 14/15, Tech Services 3/4, Public Contracts Scotland, Public Tender Scotland).

• High level of integrity, empathy, and resilience, alongside enthusiasm for continuous learning and innovation.

• Prior experience within the civil service or as a civil servant is welcomed, though not required.
