Job summary
This isnt an ordinary Practice Manager role. We are looking for a high-performing manager to support socially isolated people in Bradford, address health inequalities, and ensure patients receive personalised, high-quality care.
We are seeking a dedicated individual to join our team who embodies Bevans key principles of Health, Hope, and Humanity. At Bevan, we do things differently and strive to put our patients first.
As we deliver a range of services in addition to our APMS contract, you will have the support of a wide team of colleagues. We are very different from a mainstream practice, with core departments and leaders who will be at your side. You will also have ongoing support from wider teams within the organisation, including People, Finance, Data and Quality, and clinical teams.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants autonomy, the chance to make an impact, and work somewhere that is more than a standard GP practice.
Please note: We are reviewing applications as they are received and may close the advert early. Therefore, we encourage potential candidates to apply as soon as possible.
Main duties of the job
People who have been socially excluded are more likely to experience multiple long-term conditions, have poorer health outcomes, struggle to access mainstream healthcare, and ultimately face shorter life expectancies than the general population.
As a result, we are seeking an individual who is improvement- and quality-driven, passionate about working in an agile manner, and able to deliver on our key priorities to address health inequalities. We welcome applications from people committed to making real changes in how we deliver services to improve patient access and outcomes.
We are looking for a candidate who is resolution-focused and shares our Bevan values of courage, compassion, innovation, collaboration, and empowerment. You should be able to work under pressure and lead a team to deliver the very best care and service to our patients.
We offer:
- A competitive salary
- Access to NHS staff benefits
- Flexible working
- A friendly and caring working environment
- A rewarding career with an innovative social enterprise
About us
We are Bevan a social enterprise serving inclusion health communities and individuals, including people experiencing homelessness, refugees and asylum seekers, commercial sex workers, and Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities. Our patients are among the most marginalised and socially excluded, many with multiple needs who have experienced and sometimes continue to experience trauma.
We work as a multi-disciplinary team, offering a no wrong door approach, ensuring patients receive the support they need by working together to find solutions.
Our GP practice in Bradford is central to our offer, but equally important are the services that wrap around it, including:
- Street health teams
- Mobile migrant health teams
- Hospital in-reach teams
- Wellbeing services (including a dedicated children and young people team)
We are constantly working to expand our services to improve patient outcomes.
