Job summary

Full and part-time GP vacancies with worklife balance as the primary goal.

Ideal for experienced GPs looking for a change, newly qualified GPs looking to work in a supported environment or GPs keen to explore portfolio options.

We offer opportunities for flexible working and career development should you choose or traditional general practice and secure income if you prefer.

Main duties of the job

If you join SSP Health, you will be working as a community GP providing clinical care in a strong, friendly team with other healthcare professionals – including pharmacists and ANPs as well as working collaboratively as part of the PCNs we are involved in.

There are opportunities for leadership without the full responsibility of partnerships.

The successful applicant will be fully qualified, be motivated to provide excellent patient care and want to develop clinical services with teamwork as a priority. We want to hear from newly qualified GPs as well as experienced doctors and those with skills to deliver enhanced services.

With a keen focus on developing our teams, we offer an excellent in-house continuing professional development scheme to support appraisal and revalidation and portfolio career options. We encourage and support our GPs to follow special interests including training practice status, gynaecological services and minor surgery. Advice, leadership and guidance from senior GPs together with local Lead GPs who are readily available to support.
