Lincoln - Procurement & Materials Management Assistant

BAND 3


We have a newly created procurement team at United Lincolnshire Hospitals, comprising a clinical procurement team, non-clinical team (indirect procurement), operational team and the stores and logistics team.

We are seeking to appoint a Procurement & Materials Management Assistant for the Stores & Logistics Team at Lincoln.

We are searching for a hard working individual who is looking for an exciting new challenge.

You will be responsible for the ordering & distribution of stock ranging between clinical and non-clinical items around Lincoln County Hospital, helping across a variety of stock control areas, working closely with the Ward leads, your fellow Stores Assistants and reporting directly to the Procurement & Materials Management Officers and ultimately the Site Manager for Stores & Materials Management.


The scope of operational work managed by this team is significant - the full roll out of materials management at Lincoln is run from this team and there are some large and exciting projects to be a part of in the coming years.

The team maintains the highest standards of stock management across all areas of the hospital from Theatres to A&E and beyond.

This team also looks after all the PPE for the Trust as the central hub provider, including county wide distribution and monitoring the PPE phone line - no two days are the same.

The team support the internal stakeholders to manage their ward budgets and generate ideas for savings and service improvement for patients, whilst ensuring we meet the Trust values and standards.

If you are enthusiastic, physically fit and would relish a new challenge, we want to hear from you.

We do not need you to have any public sector experience - what we need is a passion for stores & supply, a proven track record and a desire to want to join a talented team and come on the journey we are about to take.

You will ideally have previous retail, stores or warehousing related qualifications (or have the equivalent work experience) and have the ability to make a difference in this role.

People skills will be important for dealing with the wide variety of internal stakeholders throughout the Trust that you will work with.


Our Trust is situated in the beautiful county of Lincolnshire and is one of the biggest acute hospital trusts in England, serving a population of more than 700,000 people.

We provide acute and specialist services to people in Lincolnshire and neighbouring counties. We have an annual income of £643 million (20/21) and we employ nearly 8,500 people.


Our Board have recently agreed a new vision statement - "Outstanding Care Personally Delivered" - stating their ambition for our Trust to be among the best.


We also have a five year Integrated Improvement Plan setting out how we will achieve our strategic objectives, for patients, services, people and partners, the last recognising that our future success depends on our ability to ensure the Lincolnshire healthcare system is successful in achieving its ambition to help people live healthier lives and provide care closer to where people live.

Our latest CQC report increased our ratings for being effective and well-led from 'Requires Improvement' to 'Good'. Our rating for caring remained as 'Good'.


This is in recognition of the huge amount of work that our amazing staff have done to improve the quality of care for our patients in recent years.


We are committed to helping our staff balance their work and home lives and ensure they feel supported, valued and appreciated.
