About the team

The Service Delivery Team consists of 17 commissioning and project management colleagues responsible for a range of duties including commissioning a wide range of public health services from both internal and external providers. The team also leads transformational programmes and provides project management support across the Public Health department.

About the role

As a Commissioning Officer, you will work closely with a Commissioning Manager to support the delivery of the full commissioning cycle, including service planning, procurement, contract mobilisation, performance management, service improvement and redesign.

Areas of responsibility may include primary care services, mental health provision, services for children and young people, health improvement programmes and public health information systems. You will also contribute to wider commissioning activity across other service areas in response to organisational priorities and emerging needs.

The role requires close collaboration with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, including County Council services, district and borough authorities, commissioned providers, NHS organisations and voluntary and community sector partners. You will play a key role in ensuring services are effectively designed, commissioned and delivered in line with strategic public health objectives.

You will be responsible for managing your own areas of responsibility while contributing to a collaborative and supportive team environment. The role offers opportunities to influence service design, support strategic priorities and promote commissioning best practice across the organisation.

About you

We are seeking a highly skilled commissioning professional with experience in public health and/or the NHS or similar environment who can confidently manage complex commissioning activity, develop strong partnerships and deliver high-quality outcomes in a fast-paced environment.

You will be:

Highly experienced in public health commissioning, NHS or similar environments with a strong understanding of the full commissioning lifecycle, including needs assessment, market development, procurement, contract mobilisation, performance management and service redesign.
Able to apply procurement legislation and best practice, with strong knowledge of the Public Contracts Regulations (PCR) and the Provider Selection Regime (PSR), including appropriate routes to market, governance requirements and risk management.
Comfortable managing multiple programmes, contracts and workstreams simultaneously, prioritising effectively and maintaining momentum across competing deadlines.
Capable of making sound decisions and working autonomously within a complex and fast-paced environment.
Detail-oriented, with the ability to analyse and interpret activity, quality and financial data to support effective commissioning, performance management and decision-making.
Experienced in contract management, monitoring outcomes, managing provider performance and addressing underperformance constructively and proportionately.
An effective negotiator, able to balance quality, value for money and outcomes while maintaining positive provider and partner relationships.
Experienced in partnership working across local authorities, NHS organisations, voluntary and community sector providers and other system partners.
Committed to reducing health inequalities and ensuring services are equitable, evidence-based and informed by community insight and co-production where appropriate.
Confident in the use of Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel and Outlook, with the ability to quickly learn commissioning, finance and contract management systems.

We welcome applications from candidates who currently reside in the UK with established proof of right to work documentation. We are not able to offer sponsorship at this time for this role.
