Would you like to join the team powering framework uptake across the NHS—transforming opportunities into savings, value and measurable results?
The Procurement Framework Support Manager
The Procurement Framework Support Manager is a senior, delivery-focused role within the framework uptake squad, reporting directly to the Head of Framework Uptake. The role plays a critical part in delivering the framework uptake strategy by driving increased adoption, spend, savings and value through NHS SBS frameworks across the NHS and wider public sector.
The Procurement Framework Support Manager manages a defined portfolio of frameworks, customers and opportunities, owning framework uptake pipelines and savings portfolios and converting opportunities into measurable outcomes for NHS organisations.
Acting as a trusted strategic partner, the role engages confidently with senior NHS stakeholders and works closely with NHS SBS Heads of Category and category teams to maximise framework performance and relevance. The role is central to NHS SBS’s transition to a more scalable, insight-led and accountable model for framework growth, positioning the Framework Uptake Squad as the engine room for increased adoption, utilisation and customer value.
This is a hybrid variable role requiring travel to offices in the NW and North a couple of times a month.
What you will be doing
- Proactively identify, develop and convert opportunities into increased framework adoption, spend and savings.
- Maintain high-quality pipeline intelligence and MI, using data and insight to prioritise opportunities, evidence performance and shape customer engagement activity.
- Build and sustain senior-level relationships across NHS trusts, ICSs and wider public sector organisations to position NHS SBS frameworks as strategic solutions.
- Engage confidently with executive and board-level stakeholders, shaping discussions around value, savings, outcomes and service improvement.
- Champion a customer-first mindset, ensuring high-quality experience and delivery across the framework lifecycle.
- Work closely with Heads of Category and category teams to align market strategy, framework design and customer demand.
- Demonstrate strong commercial acumen, understanding financial drivers, savings methodologies and value propositions.
