We are looking for an experienced NHS operational manager with recent knowledge and a robust understanding of the national NHS Cancer Agenda, to join our team at East Suffolk and North Essex NHS Foundation Trust.
As the site-based Cancer Performance and Delivery Manager (CPDM) at Colchester hospital, you will hold day-to-day site management responsibility, ensuring that all MDTs are covered and that daily tracking priorities are met.
- Working closely with the CPDM at Ipswich hospital, you will report directly to the trust Head of Cancer Performance and Strategy.
ESNEFT is one of the top 5 trusts in the country in terms of the number of cancer treatments we provide more than 450 first treatments every month.
- With more than 1200 cancer referrals every week, each hospital has an administration team of around 25 staff consisting of MDT coordinators, pathway trackers, and cancer hub (2ww referrals) booking clerks.
The CPDM's main responsibility will be to ensure the smooth running of the cancer services operational (MDT) function by maintaining a responsive service to each individual tumour site.
The recently published National Cancer Plan describes how cancer services will evolve and transform to support increasing patient referral numbers, enhance patient care and experience, which will ultimately improve outcomes and performance.
We may consider this role as a B7 development if you have recent relevant cancer knowledge/experience.
The Cancer Performance and Delivery Manager (CPDM) will support the Trust Head of Cancer Performance and Strategy (HCP&S) in working across organizational boundaries, in the daily management and coordination of the ESNEFT Cancer programme. This role will be site-specific based at Colchester hospital but will, on occasion, be required to cover cross between Ipswich and Colchester sites.
