Crewe, United Kingdom Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Full time

An opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, organised and motivated procurement individual to join our busy Procurement department at Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust based at Infinity House in Crewe.

The successful applicant will be part of a dedicated team playing their part in delivering an efficient and cost effective procurement and supplies service to our organisation.

Reporting to a Senior Procurement Officer, you will be responsible for managing the day to day functions on a specific Trust Project, working with Trust stakeholders and contributing to the efficiency and national procurement agenda.

Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (MCHFT) provides good quality, safe and effective healthcare to the people of Cheshire and beyond. The Trust, which manages Leighton Hospital in Crewe, Victoria Infirmary in Northwich, and Elmhurst Intermediate Care Centre in Winsford, was established as an NHS Trust in April 1991 and became a Foundation Trust in April 2008.

We employ almost 5,000 members of staff, provide around 540 hospital beds, with a range of services including accident and emergency, maternity, outpatients, therapies, and children's health.

The Trust is also part of Central Cheshire Integrated Care Partnership (CCICP), a unique local health partnership that provides a range of community services for people across South Cheshire and Vale Royal.

During the Coronavirus pandemic, the Trust was recognised nationally for its Be Safe Be EquiPPEd campaign, which aimed to make the Trust as safe as possible for staff and patients, through supporting the correct use of PPE. The results in the 2020 national NHS Staff Survey showed improvements in all elements of the safety culture theme, with 92% of respondents feeling their role made a difference to our patients. We were also recognised nationally for our workforce health and wellbeing initiatives. At Mid Cheshire, we value our staff and appreciate that in order to give our patients the best quality, compassionate care, we also need to look after our colleagues.

The Buyer role is a pivotal position within the Procurement team. Some of the key responsibilities include:

- Developing productive ongoing relationships with end users and suppliers ensuring enquiries are dealt with in a timely manner;
- Maintaining regular contact with end users and suppliers.
- Seeking to influence and standardise products ensuring value for money is obtained;
- Co-ordinating the process of purchase order activity, including expediting when necessary;
- Undertaking formal documented quotation exercises in liaison with the Line Manager and end users as necessary; and
- Working with Senior Team to support and co-ordinating special Trust Capital Project.
