An exciting opportunity has arisen for two motivated and professional individuals to join the Greater Manchester and Eastern Cheshire Strategic Clinical Networks (SCN), as Project Managers. 

The SCN supports health systems to improve outcomes in local communities by connecting stakeholders across the system to drive improvement.  We are guided by best clinical evidence, and by what makes the best sense for the people of our region.  We deliver quality and service improvements in the following areas: Maternity; Diabetes; Frailty; Cardiac and CVD; End of Life & Palliative Care; Children & Young People, Respiratory and Long Covid.

In 2022 NHS Greater Manchester Integrated Care System (ICS) was established which is a partnership of health and care organisations that come together to plan and deliver joined up services to improve the health and wellbeing of people who live and work in GM. The purpose is to improve outcomes in population health and healthcare; tackle inequalities in outcomes, experience, and access; enhance productivity and value for money and support broader social and economic development in their area efficiency. This will be delivered in neighbourhood, place, combinations of places and the wider GM system.

Interviews will be held at our NHSE office (3 Piccadilly Place, Manchester).
