Monitor service performance, investigate incidents, complaints, accidents and insurance claims, and implement corrective actions to support continuous improvement and service resilience.
Manage budgets and authorise courier-related expenditure, whilst ensuring value for money and compliance with Trust Standing Financial Instructions.
