Motive Offshore Group specialises in the design, manufacture, rental, and inspection of marine and lifting equipment and are committed to delivering sustainable, innovative and multisector solutions. We require highly skilled individuals, like you, to come and be part of our journey.

We have many exciting opportunities globally as we rapidly expand our reach and capabilities, particularly with the low carbon and energy transition areas. We aim to assist our clients and suppliers to join us as we move into a more sustainable world.

Most importantly, our People are our most valuable asset here at the Motive Offshore Group, and we encourage an inclusive, innovative and collaborative workplace that allows our employees and candidates to positively work towards their career potential.

About the role:

Hours: Full Time

Reporting to the Head of Contracts, the Contracts Specialist will have a strong attention to detail and the ability to work independently, while also knowing when to seek guidance and support.

This role will involve reviewing, drafting, and negotiating varied contracts, ensuring compliance and mitigating risks to support business operations and goals. You will play a key role in balancing legal requirements with practical business needs, helping to streamline processes, drive efficiency, and maintain the company's high standards of contract management.

About the team:

As a part of our Contracts team, you'll become part of a small, hardworking, and diligent team who are used to working to high standards and are meticulous about the small details.

You will be supported by a team in the UK, whose goal, much like your own, will be to enable smooth and efficient contract management processes, driving success across various business functions. Collaboration and communication will be key as you work together to ensure that contracts are legally sound and aligned with the company's long-term vision and operational needs.

Based in the UAE and supporting our Eastern Hemisphere region, you'll also work alongside a dedicated team of Technicians, Operations, Sales and Finance colleagues who are responsible for our success in this region.

Finally, you will be working alongside a committed and proud Motive team globally, who want to play their part in the growth of the business and support each other daily to create a positive, values-driven professional environment.

Responsibilities:

People

  • Adopt the Motive Offshore Group People Values and ensure their use is embedded throughout day-to-day tasks and decision making.
  • Develop strong working relations with key stakeholders – clients, colleagues, etc.
  • Build and maintain relationships with clients and/or potential clients.
  • Provide advice, guidance and feedback to stakeholders, at all levels, internally and externally on contract-related matters.
  • Look to provide education and an understanding of contractual matters to colleagues, as and when applicable.

Planet

Product

  • Review, draft and negotiate client terms and conditions, confidentiality agreements and supplier contracts in detail.
  • Provide clear and practical advice on contract terms and conditions to internal and external stakeholders in order to resolve disputes, claims, and general queries.
  • Create and refine Motive's contract templates to streamline processes and ensure consistency across all agreements – aligning this with the other Motive regions.
  • Support the development and negotiation of strategic long-term framework agreements with key clients, ensuring mutually beneficial commercial terms that align with Motive's business objectives.
  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders at the bid/tender stage to ensure that contractual risks are understood in context – including the creation and distribution of detailed risk profiles.
  • Support and participate in the negotiation of variation/change requests, proactively identifying areas of risk or opportunity for improvement.
  • Serve as the point of contact for clients and suppliers on contractual matters, providing guidance and ensuring clear communication throughout the contract lifecycle.
  • Monitor client contracts during their lifecycle to ensure compliance with agreed terms and conditions and to ensure that key obligations are adhered to.
  • Work alongside the Contracts Administrator to maintain organized records of fully executed agreements and associated documentation/approvals via Motive's contracts library.
  • Stay updated on industry standards, legal changes, and best practices to continuously improve contract processes and procedures.
  • Participate in contracts training and ongoing development where required.

Required skills / knowledge:

  • Experience working in a Contract Specialist role in a similar industry.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • Ability to work independently and manage multiple tasks simultaneously while recognizing when to escalate issues for further support.
  • Analytical ability to perform research tasks independently.
  • Strong computer proficiency in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
  • Well organized and focused on achieving results.
  • Able to work under pressure and within time constraints.

What we can offer you:

Alongside the benefits below, working with Motive can take you places that you might not have thought possible. We work globally, so you will have colleagues based not only in the UK, but also in Taiwan, Singapore, the UAE, Norway, Brazil, and in the US. You can look forward to playing your part and working with people who support clients and projects across multiple countries.

We're incredibly proud of the development opportunities that many of our staff have benefitted from. Since we started in 2010, we've seen staff start as school leavers and work their way to senior positions, relocate to other parts of the world with the company, and develop skills, receive training, and advance their technical knowledge to enhance their own career, which in turn helps us continuously improve and carry out the work we provide.

How to Apply & what happens next:

You're happy and ready to apply? Great, thank you.

You can apply by sending us a CV with any supporting documents telling us why you'd like to work with us at Motive Offshore Group.

We want to find great people and learn more about you as a person, ensuring we all have a positive recruitment journey. So please, tell us more about you, however you'd want.

Once we've reviewed your application, we'll be back in touch as soon as possible to update you on the next stages of the process. If you have any questions about the role or want to chat about what life is like at Motive Offshore Group, email us at
