Reporting directly to the Deputy Head of Procurement you will lead a team of Category Managers to successfully deliver the NUH work plan. As a Senior Category Manager you will support and lead on a number of improvement projects across the department to ensure we continually improve the service we offer.
The relationships that you build with stakeholders will be key to your success, which is why we are seeking someone with well-developed interpersonal skills that can quickly gain credibility.
You will be responsible for developing and leading a procurement work‑plan, as well as managing a range of complex procurement projects. You will work closely with senior managers and stakeholders to develop, deliver and manage contracts for goods and services of high value and of a complex nature.
Qualifications
You will be MCIPS qualified (or similar appropriate professional institute or relevant experience) with a strong background in delivering commercial success, as well as being a great team player, strong communicator, experienced negotiator, innovative thinker and a patient and motivational leader.
You will be experienced in delivering complex FTS tenders and have a sound knowledge of EU/UK procurement legislation.
Previous NHS experience is not essential but a strong track record in delivering savings in a stakeholder driven organisation will be.
