Commercial Officer

NHS Agenda for Change: Band 7

Job overview

This exciting position is for those people who have a thirst for commercial outcomes that have a real impact on how the Ambulance Service manages its emergency communications. We seek individuals who share our sense of purpose and embrace the challenge of getting things done in a complex, mission-critical Emergency Services environment. This requires the management of a portfolio of contracts, the management of change, and administration of key commercial systems and processes (e.g. procurement and contract management systems).

Main duties of the job

• No two days are the same for this role. The Commercial Officer plays a key role in administering systems and processes that support the broader ARP Commercial team. 
• This role also comes with contract management responsibilities for a portfolio of critical ‘Bronze’ (lower complexity) contracts and will support the management and monitoring of commercial risks and issues. 
• The successful candidate will need to interact frequently with other ARP colleagues, suppliers and Ambulance Trusts across Great Britain. 
• The role also requires frequent engagement with the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC), which provides funding for most activities within the Ambulance Radio Programme.
