Sulis hospital is a leading private hospital in the area and is wholly owned by the Royal United Hospitals Bath NHS Foundation Trust. As well as private clients, Sulis is also seeing increasing numbers of NHS patients and is growing fast, with ambitious initiatives underway to establish new NHS diagnostics services. 2025 has seen the opening of our regional orthopaedics facilities bringing our great service delivery and new theatre facilities to support NHS patients from across Bath, Swindon and Wiltshire in an innovative joint venture with three local acute hospitals.
With the advent of this new business, we have made the decision to bring back in house our stores team which is currently managed for us by the NHS. We are therefore looking for a Supply Chain and Procurement Manager to build on our existing system (Genesis) and processes, and to develop a new team to meet the increased demand.
This is a new redefined post reporting to the Associate Director of Finance. It would suit someone wanting to set up and strengthen processes and controls and use their experience to develop both an efficient team but also the long-term procurement strategies to ensure we achieve value for money, support the operational business and minimise risk.
We are seeking a commercially minded individual who can build strong links with our Finance, Business Development and Operational teams. Ideally with experience of a similar environment this is an opportunity to join an expanding team within a growth environment and build on our existing good practice and reputation. In return we offer a competitive salary and benefits and an open and friendly working environment.
