Job summary

Are you a natural leader who loves making things run smoothly for patients and colleagues ? We'd love to hear from you.

Rhyddings Surgery in Oswaldtwistle is looking for a Care Navigator Team Leader to lead our friendly, hardworking team. Our care navigators are the first voice and face patients meet, and they play a vital part in helping every patient get to the right care, first time. As their Team Leader, you'll be at the heart of it all.

This is a hands-on leadership role. You won't be leading from behind the desk. You'll be right there with the team on the busiest days, setting the standard, keeping everyone organised and supported, and helping the surgery run like clockwork.

We're looking or someone who is calm under pressure, confident making decisions, and brings out the best in others. Experience in general practice is a big advantage, and if you've already supervised or guided a team, even informally, we want to hear about it.

In return, you'll join a practice that is growing, trying new ways of working, and committed to developing its people. It's a real chance to make your mark.

30 hours per week, Monday to Friday.

Main duties of the job

No two days are the same, but here's a flavour of what you'll be doing.

Your day starts by making sure the surgery is ready and the team are set up for the morning rush. Between 8 am and 10 am you'll be on the phones with your colleagues, helping patients get the care they need and keeping the queue moving. You'll hold a quick team huddle to agree the day's priorities, and you'll be the person the team turns to when they need guidance, a second opinion or a calm voice with a difficult call.

Through the day you'll balance leading with doing. One moment you might be helping a patient at the front desk, the next you'll be checking that registrations, online requests and tasks are on track, or planning next month's rota so that busy periods are always covered.

You'll spend time with new starters, helping them settle in and build confidence, and you'll support the whole team to keep learning and improving. You'll keep the Site Manager up to date and work closely with the Connect Team Leader, sharing ideas and making sure patients get the same great service across all our sites.

Some days you'll be based at our Connect Hub at Shadsworth, handling calls and online requests as part of our triage model. On Tuesdays, on a rota basis, you'll help run our late clinic until 8pm.

If you enjoy being busy, love solving problems and get satisfaction from seeing a team work well together, this role is for you.
