NHS Supply Chain, who are we?

Our role is to support the NHS to save lives and improve health. We are a part of the NHS family, and our role is to source, deliver and supply healthcare products, services and food for NHS trusts and healthcare organisations across England and Wales.

We serve every NHS Trust and operate a national network of distribution centres, managing relationships with more than a thousand suppliers and delivering more than 8,000,000 orders each year to more than 17,000 locations. Doing all of this on behalf of the NHS gives NHS staff more time to focus on their main priority of providing excellent patient care.

What skills will help you thrive in this role?

• Minimum 5 years' experience operating as a Product Manager, with demonstrable ownership of digital products and roadmaps. Junior Product Manager experience alone will not meet the requirements of this role.
• Strong digital product management expertise, including agile delivery methodologies, product lifecycle management and feature prioritisation.
• Experience working within a B2B eCommerce environment is highly desirable; candidates from similarly complex, multi-stakeholder digital environments will also be considered.
• Proven ability to communicate complex concepts and influence decisions across a wide range of senior stakeholders, technical teams and business audiences.
• Strong understanding of customer insight and analytics tools, with experience using data to inform product decisions and measure success.
• Knowledge of digital platforms, integrations, technology ecosystems and data-driven product development.
• Experience using product and project management tools such as Jira and Confluence.
• Excellent relationship-building, problem-solving, prioritisation and organisational skills, with a proactive and collaborative approach.
• A values-led mindset with a focus on delivering customer-centred outcomes and driving continuous improvement.

Additional Screening Requirement

• Available to start within a maximum notice period of two weeks, as this is an urgent 6-month FTC requirement.
