Are you ready to make a real difference in one of the most challenging and rewarding environments in healthcare? We are seeking a skilled, compassionate, and forward-thinking Senior Primary Care Practitioner to provide expert clinical and operational leadership within our prison healthcare service.

Working closely with the Head of Healthcare, you will oversee a multidisciplinary team of nurses, paramedics, and HCAs, ensuring high-quality, patient-centred care in a fast-paced, high-risk setting. This is a key senior leadership post where you’ll shape services, support team development, and drive continuous improvement.

You’ll lead on QOF, long-term condition management, and Section 7a indicators, while embedding a trauma-informed, holistic model of care. You'll champion innovation, support safe and efficient service delivery, and promote continuity of care for patients through and beyond their time in custody.

This is a unique opportunity to influence outcomes at scale and develop as a clinical leader in a complex, secure environment.
