Project Procurement Manager Contractor

We are looking for an experienced EPC Project Procurement Manager Contractor to join a long-term contract opportunity supporting our client in renewable energy initiatives in Bloomington, Minnesota. This role will focus on managing commercial and legal coordination across major project procurement activities, helping move solar, wind, and battery storage projects from planning through contract award and execution. The position works closely with cross-functional teams to guide sourcing activities, support negotiations, maintain contract records, and ensure procurement decisions align with schedule, budget, and governance requirements.

Responsibilities:

• Partner with internal project teams to define package scope, delivery timelines, budget considerations, and procurement priorities for assigned energy projects.
• Develop and maintain detailed procurement roadmaps that track milestones, approval points, long-lead items, resource needs, and commercial risks.
• Organize and administer competitive sourcing events, including bid invitations, bidder communications, clarifications, and controlled distribution of tender materials.
• Review and compare vendor submissions to identify pricing differences, contractual exceptions, schedule impacts, and potential execution risks.
• Support commercial negotiations for construction and project-related agreements, working with legal and business stakeholders to finalize acceptable terms.
• Maintain complete documentation for sourcing decisions, negotiation activity, approvals, contract versions, and award records within approved company systems.
• Coordinate contract interface requirements involving owner-supplied equipment, including responsibilities tied to delivery, storage, installation, testing, and commissioning.
• Prepare transition and handoff materials for downstream project teams, summarizing obligations, key dates, risk areas, and responsibility assignments for execution support.
• Experience supporting procurement, contract administration, or legal operations within renewable energy, construction, or infrastructure environments.
• Ability to evaluate commercial terms, contractual risk, and bid assumptions across complex project agreements.
• Strong coordination skills with the ability to work effectively across development, engineering, construction, finance, legal, and procurement teams.
• Proficiency in maintaining organized contract files, approval records, and sourcing documentation with a high level of accuracy.
• Comfortable managing multiple deadlines and priorities in a fast-paced project setting.
• Familiarity with legal operations or paralegal support functions, including calendar management, docket tracking, or corporate legal management systems.
• Knowledge of estate planning or probate law is helpful but secondary to project procurement and contract support experience.
