Asking the £1.4bn questions. When you’re spending ten figures a year, you need to be way beyond just asking ‘how many, and how much?’. So as part of our forward-facing Future Sheffield change programme, we’re taking a holistic look at what we really need to make the biggest difference to Sheffield’s communities. What are the drivers of supply and demand? How does the market we’re operating in work? How can our commissioning strategy and behaviour improve outcomes?
This brand new role is designed to exemplify the next generation of public service commissioning. We’re taking a first-principles, wholly integrated approach to everything we procure, across all categories. System thinking will power the whole team, and you’ll be the person who brings it all together into a strategically elegant whole.
Candidates will be at the top of their profession: technically astute, analytically impressive, relationally deft, and with the ability to take the biggest of big-picture views. You’ll have a track record of innovative commissioning, substantive market stewardship, and building a culture that transforms organisations.
