East West Rail is a nationally significant railway project which aims to deliver much-needed transport connections for the vibrant communities between Oxford, Milton Keynes, Bedford and Cambridge. Together these communities contribute around £111 billion to the national economy each year.

EWR is one of the UK’s largest infrastructure projects, which the government committed to delivering in full in the Autumn 2024 Budget, and again in the 2025 Spending Review as part of its ambition to unlock the potential of the Oxford to Cambridge Growth Corridor.

EWR is being championed by the Government as a key driver to economic growth leading to a potential £78 Billion boost to the UK economy: supporting new towns, housing, and regeneration.

Role Summary:

This role reports into the Systems & Reporting Manager and provides support across the Commercial function within East West Rail, which involves assisting the Head of Commercial Operations and Head of Assurance and Compliance.

This role is responsible for monitoring the low value spend end-to-end process within East West Rail, including producing status reports, chasing at award gates and raising and managing Purchase Orders (POs).

Across all three of these domains, the Commercial function will run governance and reporting to measure compliance and provide commercial assurance.
