Fulbourn, United Kingdom West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust Full time

We are looking for an experienced, proactive Pharmacy procurement professional at the East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub in our Pharmacy & Healthcare Services category. You will have the ability to manage stakeholder engagement and work collaboratively with Pharmacy teams across the East of England, and with our partners in NHS Procurement in Partnership, across the regional and national landscape of NHS procurement. Excellent interpersonal, communication and analytical skills, along with strong pharmacy project and procurement management experience are required.

The role is hybrid, with time split between the Hub’s office based in Cambridge and remote working. Some travel within the East of England region is required along with occasional travel to other areas.

This is a diverse role in our well-established Pharmacy & Healthcare category with the opportunity to use your procurement and pharmacy or healthcare sector knowledge to develop and deliver innovative services, frameworks and identify opportunities for collaborative procurement with partners and customers.

Supporting stakeholders, health systems and individual NHS organisations, you will have a broad remit, including delivering strategies, supporting customer projects, providing advice and maximising cost efficiencies within Integrated Care Systems and NHS Trusts.

It has 500+ beds and is a partner teaching hospital of the University of Cambridge.

Adult and paediatric community services, provided in collaboration with West Suffolk Alliance partners, include a range of nursing, therapy, specialist, and ongoing temporary care and rehabilitation, some at our Newmarket Community Hospital.

We do our utmost to achieve outstanding clinical outcomes for patients and our values of fairness, inclusivity, respect, safety and team work guide how we work and behave as a team.

With nearly 5,000 staff, from all over the world, we strive to make our organisation a great place to work. Whatever your role or ambition, we want to help you be the best you can be.
