Procurement and Contract Officer at Manchester University Trust (NHS), leading a £500,000–£1 million hospital beds and medical equipment procurement.

United Kingdom
Message

At Manchester University Trust (NHS), I support procurement and contract management across an estimated £10 million spend portfolio and approximately 30 suppliers. I create and quality-check Excel registers and reports, and prepare Word documents and PowerPoint updates for commercial and governance activity.

I lead a complex procurement for hospital beds and medical equipment valued at approximately £500,000–£1 million, coordinating specialist, commercial and operational input and supporting an evidence-based award decision. I also monitor ICT supplier performance against Service Level Agreements and document gaps, risks and actions.

At JuristEdge, I managed procurement exercises from planning and sourcing through evaluation, award and contract handover. Structured trackers and document templates helped reduce tender cycle times by approximately 20%, while Excel analysis identified savings estimated at approximately 15% against benchmarked rates.

At Legal Emperors, I produced and reviewed legal, contractual, governance and risk documents, identified omissions and inconsistencies, and translated complex information into practical guidance. Across these roles, I’ve used Excel, Word and PowerPoint to produce accurate, consistent and auditable work.
