Capacity ring-fencing: Scope options for ring-fenced weekend and out-of-hours theatre, outpatient and recovery bed capacity at both sites, seeking Executive approval to formally designate this as private capacity.

4. Programme Delivery, Governance and Assurance

Programme plan: Maintain a detailed, costed programme plan with milestones, dependencies and resource allocation, update and reforecast regularly.

Governance: Chair or represent the work stream at governance forums, provide timely highlight reports, exception reporting and evidence-based briefings to the Transformation Programme Director, the Private Patient Steering Group and senior stakeholders.

Data integrity and audit: Work with Informatics to resolve the risk of mis-flagged or double-charged private activity arising from the EPR (Blueprint) transition, prioritising correction of the process on a forward-looking basis.

Communications: Work with Communications and Digital teams to develop patient-facing materials, web presence and targeted marketing to support private patient uptake.

Business development: Identify and prioritise new commercial opportunities, service lines and partnerships to grow private income across the Group, including formal proposals for third-party use of theatre/facility space where relevant.

7. People Leadership and Capability Building

Administrative resourcing: Address the current shortfall in dedicated private patient administrative capacity, including assessing options to redeploy administrative capacity released by the AVT programme.

Equitable access to enhanced pay: Work with HR to confirm and apply a consistent policy on equal-opportunity access to enhanced private-work pay rates for staff delivering private sessions outside core hours.

Capability building: Develop team capability in programme delivery, commercial contracting, billing, overseas visitor charging and performance management.

Workforce planning: Coordinate recruitment and workforce planning for roles required to operate and sustain private patient services.

Cyber and Specialist Operations Command (CSOC)

Cyber and Specialist Operations Command (CSOC) is going through a significant transformation programme which aims to design the way in which the new Military Command conducts its business and delivers for Defence and the nation. As a consequence of this, posts within CSOC are/or may become subject to review and potential changes as we continuously improve across the period of the transformation programme. These changes may be minor or could be more substantive and will generate new opportunities. Throughout, the Commands transformation programme is committed to following the MODs framework on managing and supporting people through the change process and places an emphasis on early and open consultation and engagement with the Commands personnel and Trade Unions.

Please see the link attached to our YouTube channel for advice preparing your best responses with some hints and tips on answering behaviour-based questions. Hints and tips such as: Your behaviours can be based on situations from work, volunteering or home; match your situation to the behaviour requested and how to use your 250-word limit.

The interview may consist of a mix of direct questions and clinical situation-based scenarios.

Interviews will be held on a date to be confirmed.

The sift will be completed within 10 working days of the vacancy closing date.

There will be no reimbursement for any travel expenses for the interview.

Please note the salary will be pro-rata where part time hours are undertaken.

All employees joining Ministry of Defence who are new to the Civil Service will be subject to a 6-month probation period (unless otherwise advised) effective from the employment start date.

Successful candidates must meet the security requirements before they can be appointed. The level of security needed is SC.

If found successful for this position, you will be required to provide evidence of your immunity to Hepatitis B. Please note that evidence of your vaccination is not a proof of your immunity, but your serology levels will be required. Failure to provide sufficient evidence may result in the offer of employment being withdrawn.

The post does NOT offer relocation expenses (move of home, excess fares or temporary transfer). Non-Standard move applicants will be eligible for the full package, subject to eligibility.

As a result of the changes to the UK immigration rules which came into effect on 1 January 2021, the Ministry of Defence will only offer sponsorship for a skilled worker visa under the points-based system, where a role has been deemed to be business critical. This role does not meet that category, and we will not sponsor a visa. It is therefore NOT open to applications from those who will require sponsorship under the points-based system.

Should you apply for this role and be found to require sponsorship, your application will be rejected, and any provisional offer of employment withdrawn.

The Ministry of Defence requires all candidates who are successful at interview to declare any outside interests. These declarations will be discussed with successful candidates following the interview process and before a formal offer of employment is made, as some outside interests may not be compatible with MOD civilian roles. This will not, in the majority of cases, prevent employment in MOD, but it is a measure that must be taken to ensure that appropriate mitigations can be put in place to manage any potential, perceived or actual conflicts of interest from the first day of employment.

The Ministry of Defence adopts a zero-tolerance approach to unacceptable behaviours, which includes bullying, harassment, sexual harassment, discrimination, and victimisation. You will not be eligible and will not be considered for this post if you have been dismissed from a role for such unacceptable behaviours within the last five years. This will also apply if you resign or otherwise leave a role but, because of an adverse decision, would have been dismissed for gross misconduct had you continued in that employment. Pre-employment checks will be carried out.

The Ministry of Defence is committed to providing a safe and healthy working environment for its staff which includes educating them on the benefits of not smoking, protecting them from the harmful effects of second-hand smoke and supporting those who want to give up smoking. Under the Smoke-Free Working Environment policy, Smoking and the use of all tobacco products (including combustible and chewing tobacco products) will not be permitted anywhere in the Defence working environment. The policy is Whole Force and includes all Defence personnel, contractors, visitors and other non-MOD personnel. All applicants seeking, considering, or accepting employment with the Ministry of Defence should be aware of this policy and that it is already in place at a number of Defence Establishments.
