Main duties of the job
The role is a
patient centred role that requires leadership and hands-on inspirational support
to the practice and Division to help drive forward the strategy and help
develop others as leaders. The
postholder will need to confidently evidence key skills such as excellent
verbal and written communication skills, substantial experience in staff
management, clinical skills, empowering patients to manage their individual
health needs, support the strategic direction of the practice, the Division,
and the wider organisation. The postholder will work in collaboration with
local divisions (including Divisional Boards) and the National Modality Business
Support Team to promote and deliver innovative ways of working to meet the

The role is not

requires innovation, flexibility, and commitment and the postholder will
be required to work resourcefully as part of the wider team and help to deliver
innovative ways of working to meet the strategic aims of the organisation.

practices to improve patient and staff satisfaction. This is a role that will

within Primary Care.

Job responsibilities
Please refer to
the supporting documents section to retrieve the JD detailing the core
responsibilities of this role.
You will love
this job if you have a passion for providing excellent patient care, thinking
outside the box, are innovative and are driven to find and implement business-focussed
solutions to improve the way we deliver care in General Practice. You will be
part of a national partnership where there is resilience from a large team of
GP Partners to support where it is needed but also who are there to work closely
with on key decisions that shape the way in which we deliver patient care and influence
service improvement. We strongly
encourage GP specialities and have opportunities for teaching and training.
You will not
enjoy this job if you are seeking a job that purely focuses on seeing patients,
and you are unable to hold others to account where quality falls short of the
desired level.
If you feel
this is the ideal career advancing opportunity for you and you want to rise to
the challenge of this opportunity, we welcome an application for you to join
our growing team of likeminded people.
As part of recruitment to the Modality Partnership, we will

undecided about vaccinations. Some vaccinations for certain roles are
mandatory, and you will be asked to provide evidence of this where there is a
mandatory requirement.
