Job summary

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced leader to join North East Derbyshire Primary Care Network Ltd (NED PCN), as our new PCN Manager.

We are looking for a motivated, enthusiastic, innovative leader to join our focused, professional, friendly and supportive senior management team. The ideal candidate will have proven leadership experience, a proactive mindset, and will be dedicated to making NED PCN the best it can be, for its member practices, their patients, and its staff.

We are proud of all our PCN has to offer, and everything we have achieved to date, much of which is as a result of our ongoing investment in collaborative working between practices and a shared commitment to sustaining the core principles of General Practice.

Main duties of the job

As PCN Manager, you will be integral to the ongoing success of the PCN. Playing a lead role within the complex environment of Primary Care, you will be responsible for identifying and delivering a wide range of operational and business improvement initiatives, providing strategic leadership and transformational support.

This is an outward-facing role and the ability to cultivate strong, effective relationships with a wide range of stakeholders is critical to develop collaborative and innovative approaches to service delivery, which will sustain and further strengthen the resilience of the PCN, as well as aligning with the wider NHS Neighbourhood strategy.

You will be responsible for maximising the impact of all PCN resources (including financial), and you will be accountable for the development, integration and wellbeing of the PCN employed workforce. You will ensure every decision is made with the best interests of the PCN member practices, and the patients they serve, at its heart.

About us

NED PCN is an organisational group of four proactive GP practices in North East Derbyshire. The Practices are Barlborough Medical Practice, Killamarsh Medical Practice, The Springs Medical Partnership and The Valleys Medical Partnership.

NED PCN is a relatively small PCN with just over 40,000 patients. We feel that this makes us big enough to develop a successful team but small enough to be an approachable, friendly place to be.

The NHS Long Term Plan describes the prominent role Primary Care Networks play in delivering proactive, personalised and more integrated health and social care for their local populations. This will require collaborative working between organisations including GP practices, acute and community health, social care organisations and the voluntary and community sector.

Core practices opening hours of 8:00am 6:30pm Monday to Friday each week.
