As Contract Manager, you will be part of the FACTS project management team of experienced and motivated professionals, handling a number of large turnkey projects serving global customers. In this important and challenging role, you will partner closely with the Project Manager and handle all terms and conditions in customer and sub-supplier contracts. You will also be responsible for the pursuit of project-related claims.

Responsibilities
• Apply a proactive approach to the review and commenting of commercial terms & conditions, in the tender phase as well as the execution phase.
• Highlight areas of potential risk such as ambiguities, omissions and conflicts; as work proceeds, closely monitor, mitigate and support remedial actions as necessary, working closely with the PM.
• Coordinate with the project team to identify customer related actions or inactions which could result in constructive contract changes. Recommend and implement actions to document and request the additional cost or time compensation. Prepare change orders to the contract and develop the negotiation strategy and support negotiations.
• Identify and prepare claims as they arise and coordinate the efforts to negotiate and resolve claims with ABB Legal Department.
• Provide training to FACTS Sweden project management and sales staff on contract and claims management.

We are looking for a team player with an independent and solution-oriented working style, as well as strong communicative and collaborative skills. While you have superior attention to details, structure and organizational skills, you are able to apply a larger, systemic view to projects. You independently take initiative, make decisions and drive projects to conclusion. In addition, you are not afraid to push back and hold others accountable as needed, while your high degree of inter-cultural sensitivity and integrity enable you to lead by influence and maintain strong relationships. You have a business-driven, pragmatic mindset and you understand that good results are achieved in cooperation with management, sales teams and internal and external experts.

The right candidate will have a law degree plus a minimum of 5 years' experience related to projects, or 10-15 years contract management-related experience on large global projects. Excellent oral and written legal business English is required; a 2nd language such as German, French, Arabic or Spanish will provide added value.

A degree in Business Administration, Quantity Surveying, Law, Engineering, Construction Management, Cost Engineering, or equivalent experience is required. In addition, candidates are expected to possess all or several of the following:

• Experience or courses in contract law, contract drafting, administration and negotiation of change orders, and effective correspondence.
• Ability to interface with customers on issues ranging from administration of the contract to all matters relating to the review and process of changes.
• Ability to evaluate the legitimacy of a claim as well as understand and interpret the main contract provisions by challenging costs, and how these affect scope and schedule.
