Wonford Green Practice Manager
“An exciting opportunity has arisen for a highly motivated leader to join our well established, hardworking and dedicated team.
Perfectly located in the heart of Devon, Wonford Green Surgery is situated in the vibrant city of Exeter which boasts a thriving community, cobbled streets and squares, art galleries, restaurants, and boutique shops. This is a stunning county of great contrasts, with two beautiful coastlines, two national parks and five official Areas of Outstanding Beauty right on our doorstep. It also has excellent transport links and schools.
General practice in Devon is of a high standard, making it a great place to work and live. Our vision is to deliver high quality healthcare to our patients, by a highly skilled, motivated and constantly improving team, supported in a nurturing work environment.
Wonford Green Surgery is a six Doctor PMS teaching practice caring for 6400 patients with a varied demographic. Our doctors are supported by a dedicated team consisting of two practice nurses, an HCA and Phlebotomist, Office Manager, and seven Receptionists. We are heavily involved with Exeter Medical School and have a teaching ethos; we currently have an ST3 registrar. Due to the combined efforts of our excellent clinical and admin teams we achieve high QOF targets and were rated ‘Good’ by CQC in our last inspection.
We work in alliance with other practices in the area and play an active part in the successful Exeter City Primary Care Network (PCN); several ideas to build effective transformation processes and best practices are currently being explored to fully exploit and maximise the opportunities provided by the GP contract and NHS Long Term Plan.
The wellbeing of our staff is of the utmost importance; the workflows and systems that we have in place have been specifically designed to ensure pressure and demand are effectively managed and equally shared across all staff groups. Team meetings are held regularly, and our practice environment has been designed to encourage contact and support within and across all staff groups.
We are looking for a highly motivated individual who has the commitment and passion to drive efficiencies and quality of care for our patients and the wellbeing of our staff. A working knowledge of business, NHS finance and Human Resources are essential. The successful candidate will be comfortable with transformational processes, with the agility and proactiveness to lead us through the changes outlined in the NHS Long Term Plan and GP Contract. Excellent communication and organisational skills are essential; a background in healthcare is desirable.
