You will be responsible for the provision of a Materials Management service to LGI Theatres.

This is a busy area of Supplies, so you will need to be organised and show strong confident communication skills when working with end users, especially when urgent orders are needed. You need to be physically fit, as this job can involve manual handling, pushing, and pulling. You need to be adaptable to change, sometimes at short notice.
Expected Shortlisting Date: 22/01/2025
Planned Interview Date: 31/01/2025
Main Duties of the Job
This role is based within LGI Theatres, and you may be face to face with Surgeons/Clinicians urgently requiring very specific medical products, so people management skills are key. You will be working directly with other Materials Management Assistants, but a degree of autonomy will be needed as you will have your own areas of responsibility to oversee. It is vital you build a good rapport with Clinicians and medical staff. You will be part of a much bigger team across the Supplies & Procurement as a whole. There are many opportunities and pathways for career progression and plenty of training courses offered and encouraged! This role is operational, so on-site 5 days a week (Mon-Friday); there is no availability for hybrid working.
You will ensure that the Trust's procurement is undertaken in accordance with the organisation's Best Practice and Financial Standing Instructions. You will provide a comprehensive interface for customers who receive a Materials Management service and manage the administrative support required for each of the Supplies IT Systems.
This role is based at LGI, Monday-Friday, full time 37.5 hours, typically 7:30 am - 3:30 pm.
