The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring the efficient operation of the service, optimal utilisation of patients, and strong financial performance. You will lead a team comprising Patient Bookers and Medical Secretaries, ensuring the highest standards of service delivery.

  • Ensure excellent utilisation of patient appointments and resources.
  • Serve as the key point of contact for all escalations related to the contract.
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with stakeholders, including clinicians, trust staff, and the wider operations team.
  • Regularly review service performance and implement improvement strategies as necessary.
  • Monitor the financial performance of the service, ensuring it meets agreed targets.
  • Minimise cost lines, such as agency or increased clinician rates, by ensuring the service is fully staffed and efficiently resourced.
  • Proactively identify opportunities for cost savings and operational improvements.
  • Collaborate with the wider operations team to ensure adequate staffing levels across the service.
  • Address staffing challenges promptly to avoid disruption to service delivery.
  • Work a flexible schedule to meet the needs of a primarily weekend-based service, including working Thursday to Monday or covering weekends as required.
  • Spend 2-3 days per week on-site at the trust to build relationships, monitor service delivery, and provide hands-on support.


Person specification and requirements


Essential:

  • Proven experience in service delivery and account management within a healthcare or similar setting.
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to manage and motivate teams, including Patient Bookers and Medical Secretaries.
  • Exceptional problem-solving and decision-making abilities, particularly in high-pressure environments.
  • Financial acumen with experience managing budgets and improving cost efficiency.
  • Outstanding communication and stakeholder management skills.
  • Flexible approach to working hours, including availability to work weekends and adapt to service needs.
  • Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with the wider operations team.
  • Strong organisational skills with attention to detail.
