About us

The North West London Primary Care Provider Collaborative (NWL PCPC) is a newly established Community Interest Company bringing together primary care provider organisations from across North West London to create a stronger, more influential voice for primary care within one of the country's largest and most complex health systems. Collectively representing organisations serving a population of more than two million people, the Collaborative has been created to enable primary care to work at greater scale, shape system strategy and deliver services differently. As Integrated Care Systems continue to evolve and new responsibilities transfer from the Integrated Care Board, the Collaborative will play an increasingly significant role in supporting neighbourhood working, hosting strategic functions and delivering services on behalf of the wider NHS. We are now seeking to appoint our inaugural Chief Executive to help establish and lead this ambitious new organisation at a defining moment in its development.
