• Stakeholder engagement: Build effective working relationships with hospital management, clinical and corporate teams, and external public health stakeholders to facilitate effective contract delivery.
• Process improvement: Identify and implement opportunities to strengthen contract management systems, streamline processes and improve consistency, accountability and operational efficiency.
