We need an exceptional individual to fill a post as Primary Care Contracts Officer. This is a permanent, challenging and exciting role within Primary Care Contracting (PCC) which will be key to supporting the West Area in all aspects of contracting with GPs, Community Pharmacies and Optometrists.

The post involves supporting the commissioning and operational management of all primary care contracts in the Areas and will require highly developed communication and skills.

Your communication skills will be exceptional as you build and maintain, effective working relationships with individual contractors and their staff, acting as a day to day contact for resolving contract management and operational issues that arise. You will be required to work collaboratively with key colleagues within PCC, Area Teams and across a wide range of stakeholders, using excellent communication, networking, and influencing skills.

You will demonstrate a thorough understanding of the regulations and contracts governing the provision of primary care services to ensure you are able to provide advice and support on all primary care contracting matters to contractors, and to colleagues within PCC, Area Teams and across BCU.

Responsible for taking the lead role for the operational management of the agreed elements of GMS contracts within the division, interpreting policies to reflect local needs within the overall operational framework.

Use expert and specialist knowledge of the statutory primary care contracts and regulations to advise and provide expertise on primary care issues in relation to commissioning, contracts, and performance both to the HoPCC / PCCM and to contractors.

Operate within broad national and local procedural guidelines, with mínimal supervision, and exercise a significant measure of independent judgement in order to respond to, advise on and resolve basic contractual issues and concerns. This will involve decision-making on contentious issues where there may be a number of courses of action.
