The role will involve:

  • Providing medical leadership to ensure the efficient delivery of services across the cluster
  • Ensuring that all patients across the region receive appropriate care and treatment from the practice clinical teams in line with NHS and GMC guidelines
  • Representing the clinical leadership team within the region and developing and maintaining mutually beneficial working relationships with all stakeholders through effective networking, (NHSE, CCG, CQC, Local Authorities, LMC, Federations, Alliances, ACS etc.)
  • Working closely with the other Clinical Chairs to ensure best practice is shared
  • Supporting the General Manager to ensure all practices within the region meet contractual requirements within budget
  • Leading the development and implementation of new services

  • Delivering the company clinical performance review process for the region in conjunction with the Nursing management team
  • Managing the clinical investigation process within the region

An ambitious GP with clinical leadership experience gained in modern primary care, you’ll be a champion of innovation and best practice in healthcare services, and a relationship-builder who can bring new ideas to life.

 

To succeed in this role, you’ll need:

  • Evidence of strong clinical leadership resulting in high clinical standards
  • An appropriate level of primary care experience
  • A sound knowledge and understanding of key NHS issues, clinical performance monitoring systems and the national regulatory framework
  • Demonstrable stakeholder management expertise
  • Multi-site experience
