Oakley Health Group is a team of 7 partners and 9 Salaried GPs, providing care to 29,250 patients across three sites in Yateley/Blackwater, Hampshire. We are looking to grow our team to meet increasing demand. 

Our unusual structure as a one-practice PCN allows us to have a fully integrated, co-located support team of ARRS roles and a range of Specialist HCP’s working in Primary Care including Orthopaedic Practitioners and a Mental Health & Wellbeing team. Everyone uses EMIS making communication and wrap around care easier.

We offer a friendly and supportive environment for GPs to practice safely and effectively, with a manageable and sustainable workload. Support includes an integrated Workflow Team, processing all incoming documents and an Urgent Home Visiting Team. Our size allows some flexibility in accommodating any areas of particular clinical interest. We are a training practice with three GP Trainers supporting a wide variety of GP Trainees.

We are interested to talk to GPs looking to work between 6 and 8 sessions a week. Our GPs retain a personal list, as we believe that this is important to ensure continuity of care, whilst benefiting from the additional resources available when operating at scale.

We are happy to take applications from GP Trainees who have passed their AKT, subject to successful attainment of a CCT. We are also interested in approaches from candidates needing Tier 2 Visa Sponsorship.

For more information or an informal chat please contact Jennie Taylor, Business Manager jennifer.taylor1@nhs.net or Dr Fiona Salkeld, Managing Partner fiona.salkeld@nhs.net

Oakley Health Group is a large team providing care to 29,250 patients across three sites in Yateley/Blackwater, Hampshire. 

Our unusual structure as a one-practice PCN allows us to have a fully integrated, co-located support team of ARRS roles and a range of Specialist HCP’s working in Primary Care including an Integrated Care Team, Orthopaedic Practitioners and a Mental Health & Wellbeing team. Everyone uses the same EMIS record making communication and wrap around care easier.

This large clinical team is supported by an Operations Team headed by our Business Manager who has, until now, also been the PCN Manager. Increasing workload plus continuity planning means that we are now looking to split this role and recruit a full-time Business Manager.

The Business Manager will manage ten direct reports who, as a team, fulfil the traditional practice management role as well as additional roles only possible by management at scale.

The successful applicant will need to be able to support the Senior practice team at a strategic level, will have excellent man management and coaching skills and be constantly looking to improve standards and achievement at all levels. Demonstrable communication skills are an essential part of the role, whether this be with patients, staff or the many stakeholders with whom we interact.

Oakley Health Group thrives on aiming for the highest standards whilst embracing change and innovation. We offer a friendly and supportive environment, always aiming for a manageable work/life balance.

We are interested to talk to anyone with the energy and ambition to take the practice forward. Although previous Primary Care experience would be useful, it is not essential as support and training for the right person would be available.

Please send a copy of your CV, together with a covering letter explaining why you are interested in the role to our HR Manager michelle.wright60@nhs.net
