**Ētahi kōrero mō Pharmac - Te Pātaka Whaioranga | About Pharmac - Te Pātaka Whaioranga**

At Pharmac | Te Pātaka Whaioranga we endeavour to deliver the best health outcomes for all New Zealanders through investment in medicines and medical devices.

We are a close-knit whānau with around 180 kaimahi. We take pride in what we do, work hard, and have fun along the way.

Ngā uruatanga, our values, ground our behaviour and guide our thinking:
**Whakarongo** - we listen with intent and empathy to understand

**Tūhono** - we connect with people, communities, the health system and each other

**Wānanga** - we draw on evidence and people's experiences to improve

**Māia**:

- we challenge ourselves

**Kaitiakitanga**:

- we safeguard wellbeing for New Zealanders, now and for the future

**Mō tēnei tūranga | About the Role**

We are seeking a procurement professional to lead procurement activities and support commercial strategies for medicines and vaccines, and feed into a wider programme around hospital medical devices to ensure optimum value for money is gained.

In this role you will be managing competitive procurement processes, which will include planning, conducting evaluations, negotiating, and consulting with relevant stakeholders. The role requires strong analysis and writing skills. The primary focus of this role is sourcing, as Pharmac has dedicated contract management teams.

This role provides a fantastic opportunity to be at the core of Pharmac's operations and part of a collaborative team that leads procurement activities on behalf of the wider health sector. The purchasing decisions you will facilitate are not made for the benefit or use of the agency, they are made for the benefit and use of New Zealanders and the wider health sector. You will be able to see and feel the results of the work you do.

This position is situated within our close-knit Procurement Team who are a forward-thinking, friendly team that want to foster a sustainable medicines and medical devices market for the future of all New Zealanders. The team consists of seven people, and sits in the Procurement and Contracts Team within the Pharmaceuticals Directorate at Pharmac. While conducting procurement processes you will engage closely with a wide variety of other teams within Pharmac such as the Pharmaceutical and Device Funding Teams, Legal, Communications, Analysis, Medical and Implementation teams, all of whom are invested and actively involved in our procurement work.

Please note in this position you will be managing procurement processes, rather than our Procurement Team. Similar types of expertise include procurement specialist, sourcing manager and contract manager.

This position is also Wellington based.

**Ko wai koe? | Who are you?**

Kua rite koe mō tēnei mahi? Are you ready to make a difference?
- Experience in leading various end to end procurements activities and writing up relevant documentation.
- Understanding of the New Zealand Government procurement rules, and public sector structure (particularly regarding health) and regulations.
- Excellent relationship management and negotiation skills as your engagement with medical suppliers will ensure value is optimised across the supplier base.
- Analytical skills, able to deal with complex financial, economic, and clinical data.
- Strong ability to collate information and concisely communicate this in verbal and written forms clearly to a range of audiences.
- Ability to effectively manage multiple tasks of varying complexity and meet deadlines.
- A willingness to learn and a desire to make a difference to the lives of New Zealanders is key.

While we are primarily looking for individuals with procurement experience, we are open to receiving applicants with other relevant experience in the health sector or pharmaceutical industry to bring those perspectives to our procurement activities.

**Joining Pharmac | Te Pātaka Whaioranga**
We are a whānau centered organisation and understand the importance of maintaining a healthy work life balance. To support our kaimahi and their whānau we offer:

- Five weeks annual leave
- Additional paid leave for our end of year close-down period
- An annual $500 hauora payment for eligible kaimahi
- Health Insurance corporate discount with Southern Cross
- Paid Parental Leave support in addition to minimum legislative requirements.
- Hybrid working - work from home up to two days per week.

At Pharmac | Te Pātaka Whaioranga we welcome all kaimahi with a mihi whakatau during their first month. For kaimahi Māori, we offer mihi whakatau on your first day, where your whānau and manuhiri are welcome to attend. As you come through our waharoa, you will be welcomed into our growing support network - Maōri Caucus.

We strive to represent Aotearoa and the diverse
