About the speaker
Ben joins us from NHS England’s Net Zero and Sustainable Procurement team, which sits within NHS Commercial and focuses on efficiency savings to ensure the NHS uses its resources effectively and maximises value for money for taxpayers.
They also form the supply chain workstream of the wider Greener NHS programme which aims to deliver the world’s first net zero health service and respond to climate change, improving health now and for future generations.
The team has been at the forefront of launching the Evergreen Sustainable Supplier Assessment and the NHS Carbon Reduction Plan and Net Zero Commitment requirements guidance which will be discussed during today’s event.
The team also looks at addressing Modern Slavery in the supply chain and delivering social value through procurements.
