What You'll Do 

Help shape the future of reproductive healthcare.

This is more than a contract management role.  This is an exciting opportunity to use your commercial, contractual and relationship management expertise to support a mission that genuinely changes lives. You will join a dynamic, supportive and high-performing team that is passionate about expanding access to reproductive healthcare, strengthening NHS partnerships and ensuring patients receive the services they need, when they need them.

If you are looking for a role where you can combine contract management, business development, commissioning and stakeholder engagement with a purpose-driven organisation making a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.

At MSI Reproductive Choices, we believe everyone should have access to high-quality reproductive healthcare and the freedom to make informed choices about their own bodies and futures. As a values-driven charity and leading provider of NHS-funded reproductive healthcare services, we are committed to expanding access, reducing inequalities and improving outcomes for the communities we serve.

We are looking for an experienced and commercially astute NHS Contracts Manager to join our ambitious Business Development and Engagement Division. This is a unique opportunity for a contract management professional who thrives on building relationships, influencing stakeholders, identifying growth opportunities and delivering meaningful impact through healthcare commissioning. 

You will be commercially aware, highly motivated and confident operating within a complex healthcare landscape, with the ability to balance strategic thinking and practical delivery.

In this strategic role, you will take ownership of a diverse portfolio of NHS contracts, ensuring strong contract performance, compliance and optimisation while actively pursuing opportunities to expand and develop services across your region. Working at the intersection of contract management, business development, commissioning and stakeholder engagement, you will play a key role in supporting MSI's growth and ensuring patients can access vital reproductive healthcare services.
