Meet the team – BEYOND THE FRAMEWORK : NWUPC Podcast

Back To News

Discover a different side of NWUPC in Season 2 of Beyond the Framework, the Official NWUPC Podcast.

This season, we’re taking a step away from the suppliers and frameworks you know us for and turning the spotlight towards the people behind the Consortium. Because while frameworks, procurement and collaboration are at the heart of what we do, it’s the people who bring NWUPC to life.

Across a series of informal, engaging and often insightful conversations, members of the NWUPC team open up about their career journeys, the experiences that have shaped them, the interests they pursue outside of work and the moments that have influenced who they are today. From unexpected career paths and professional milestones to personal passions, lessons learned and stories from along the way, Season 2 offers a more personal insight into the people who make up the NWUPC team.

Whether you work closely with NWUPC, are part of our wider membership community, or simply want to get to know the team a little better, Beyond the Framework is your chance to hear the stories behind the names, discover the personalities behind the roles and find out what really makes our team tick.

So, put your headphones on, settle in and join us as we go beyond procurement, beyond the frameworks and beyond the day-to-day.

**Listen now and get to know the people behind NWUPC — and discover what happens BEYOND THE FRAMEWORK… **
