As part of our Procurement strategy, HPL set a strategic ambition to implement an advanced IMS to enhance stock management, increase product track and traceability and support quality services across the organisation.

In 2023 The Walton Centre applied to be part of the national IMS early adopters’ programme, to roll out an advanced IMS system with their selected provider of choice. The Trust was successful in its application, and we are delighted to be part of the new programme.

Whilst the programme will be overseen by Procurement, the implementation and ongoing operation of the system, is very much a collaborate effort across both clinical and corporate teams.

The candidate will also be required to work closely with NHSSC and our IMS provider, on the successful implementation and embedding of new processes to ensure that maximum benefits can be realised.

If you have a passion for improvement, are a champion for change, have strong interpersonal skills, have experience in project management and can work as part of a team, then we would love to hear from you.
