Stand by, we'll show you...
At Whitemoor Medical Centre we relate the success of the practice directly to the strength of our management team. We are looking for a new Practice Manager to lead this team and play a vital role in the continued performance and development of our operations.
Although previous healthcare experience would be helpful it is by no means essential. Indeed, we would be keen to hear from people with a proven track record of leadership in a non NHS environment. The most important attributes are experience in overseeing business operations in a small to medium sized business as well as human resources, finance and premises. The ideal candidate will be a great communicator who has a strong ability to delegate responsibility as well as roll their sleeves up and get stuck in when required. In addition, they will have the ability to collaborate across a range of departments and stakeholders.
Ultimately, our new practice manager will be driven by a desire to lead our business to maximum productivity and efficiency.
Working hours are flexible from 30 hours a week up to full time.
Interviews are scheduled to take place on the afternoon of Wednesday 11th December 2024, with a second interview for shortlisted candidates on the morning of Saturday 14th December 2024.
If you would like to have an informal chat about this role, prior to application, then please contact Dr James Youngs by email , , to arrange a discussion.
