Currently, we have three vacancies for Procurement Specialists within the team:
Clinical – Surgery, Critical Care, Theatres and Anaesthetics, Women and Newborn, Child Health and Cancer Care
This impactful role reports to Chris Buck, WPL’s Procurement Manager responsible for the above categories. Chris is an extremely likeable person who has a wealth of procurement and commercial experience. Being relatively new to WPL, Chris will be developing an approach to supporting these categories and you will have the opportunity to help shape this with him. These categories involve wide stakeholder bases so Chris will require someone who enjoys networking, troubleshooting, and influencing. There will be plenty of opportunities in these category areas to deliver cost savings, influence significant improvements and deliver social value and sustainability benefits.
Clinical – Cardiovascular and Thoracic, Radiology, Respiratory, Specialist Medicine, Endoscopy and Neurosciences
This stimulating role reports to Bryn Webb, WPL’s Procurement Manager responsible for the above categories. The intricate nature of this work means you'll be at the forefront of innovation, shaping the future of these departments. Bryn has worked his way up through the procurement and supply teams and has significant experience working with both hospital trusts in a variety of different roles. You would be joining Bryn’s team with an immediate opportunity to support significant procurement activity for these vital clinical services. If you're passionate about unravelling complexity and driving meaningful solutions, this role is tailor-made for you.
Clinical – Orthopaedics, Ophthalmology, Clinical Support and Medicine
This exciting role reports directly to Simon Wright, the Senior Procurement Manager. There are fascinating opportunities to deliver significant value to the trusts within these category areas. Simon is a very approachable manager who offers a supportive management style with a focus on your development. You will be responsible for providing a procurement service to and developing a strong relationship with orthopaedic stakeholders, particularly in Winchester and Basingstoke. You will work towards becoming entirely responsible for ophthalmology at both hospital trusts and as part of this process will get to work closely with our Chief Procurement Officer. There is a steep and lengthy learning curve in this role so it would best suit someone with a bit of patience and a passion for continuous personal development, but Simon Wright says that the journey will be worth it as he has been on a similar journey himself and has benefited from significant career development and support and appreciation from the wider WPL team and management.
