At Te Pātaka Whaioranga | Pharmac we endeavour to deliver the best health outcomes for all New Zealanders through investment in medicines and medical devices.
Through our work on behalf of Aotearoa we strive to improve equitable health outcomes for Māori and advance Māori health aspirations.

Mō tēnei tūranga | About the Role
Our Contract Manager role is focussed on monitoring, analysis, and management of the contracts Pharmac has with suppliers for Pharmaceuticals.
As well as the functions associated with Contract Management, you will also act as a subject matter expert and support other members of the team.
While Pharmac manages vaccine and medicine, you do not necessarily need to have expertise in these areas, although it would be advantageous.

We are seeking individuals with strong prioritisation skills, confident multi-tasking with the ability to anticipate needs.
