Crynodeb

This role is a specialist position, with the post holder being responsible for Purchasing activities across Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust with specific responsibility for the Clinical Strategic Purchasing Team.

MFT look after ten hospitals in the Greater Manchester area and are looking to continue their mission on delivering a high functioning, sustainable single hospital service by recruiting this crucial role.

You would be joining the team in the Finance and Procurement Business Unit – a space that has been created to encourage flexible working, with state of the art modern facilities that will make your working life more rewarding.

Currently these role operates on a mix of home working . Twice weekly office attendance is required which is non-negotiable and may be revised to full time office attendance.

As you will need to take responsibility for procedural compliance and team leadership, you will need to have substantial strategic purchasing experience within a private or public sector organisation. Committed to achieving full membership of the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply (CIPS), it would be beneficial (though isn’t strictly necessary) to have some knowledge of clinical product procurement within the NHS. Crucially, you will have exceptional communication and partnership skills, with the capacity to work directly with clinical stakeholders and procurement and supply chain colleagues.

MFT is one of the largest NHS Trusts in England with a turnover of £2.8bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts. We’re creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.

Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 30,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals. We set standards that other Trusts seek to emulate so you’ll benefit from a scale of opportunity that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We’ve also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive; our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.

We’re proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes. What’s more, we’re excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.
