This role, working within the NHS England Commercial function, requires an individual who can translate the overall commercial vision and strategy into an efficient operating model, embedding a culture of continuous improvement and efficiency

Support in developing a service model that ensures value for money, efficiency and promotes excellence.

In April 2023, NHS England, NHS Digital, and Health Education England merged to create a new, single organisation to lead the NHS in England. This new NHS England is designed to create a simpler, smaller, high performing, organisation that leads the NHS more effectively and is a better place to work.
