Candidates must be able to meet the essential criteria for the interim post, which includes the requirement of having had experience in a senior role within health and justice for a credible period of time (the rationale for this being an interim role is that it needs to be able to move swiftly into the post with prison vetting already in place).

The post holder must also be able to demonstrate:

Evidence of implementing site-based improvements
Good financial management of budgets and cost efficiencies
Good understanding of CQC inspections
Patient-focused with evidence of engagement
Ability to lead change and quality improvements linked to patient safety
Data driven and performance-focused
Positive stakeholder partnerships

You will be the registered CQC Manager and be responsible for supporting and ensuring compliance with CQC standards and regulations using continuous improvement methodologies, working alongside colleagues from the Quality department.

You will be responsible for the effective day-to-day operational management of all clinical services provided throughout the prison, including primary care nursing clinics, GP clinics, and substance misuse services. You will be responsible for the management and monitoring of all service level agreements (dental services, physiotherapy, podiatry), ensuring performance-monitoring standards are adhered to and the highest standards of care are maintained. This role within the prison is a senior role with responsibility as lead for the delivery of service outcomes at a local level.

Your health and well-being is important to us, and as such, we offer flexibility in the workplace to support balance in your working life. We welcome informal site visits prior to the interview.

This position is a perfect match for someone who is passionate about upholding and advancing exceptional standards of care and service and possesses the capability to motivate and elevate the team through robust clinical supervision and continuous professional growth.
