Clinical Operational Lead - Proactive Care Team
Band 8a
Job overview
We are recruiting a passionate and proactive Clinical and Operational Lead for a new Neighbourhood Proactive Care Service in Hertfordshire.
This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in delivering community-based, person-centred care for residents. The role will focus on holistic assessments, care coordination, addressing health inequalities, and delivering on the strategic ambition of a ‘neighbourhood health service’. This role will have both an operational management and patient-facing element.
This service will see the shift from reactive care to proactive identification by using risk stratification searches within Primary Care records. Identifying a cohort of patients who would benefit from targeted intervention to improve outcomes, enhance experience, and reduce the likelihood of further unplanned admissions. The service will operate alongside other acute and community services, with the ability to step patients up into appropriate services - including the highly successful virtual ward models in South and West Hertfordshire.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This role presents as an excellent opportunity to work in a topical area of service delivery within the NHS right now and will provide the opportunity to gain service development skills.
As this is a community-based role, with travel between patient homes, there is a requirement to hold a full, valid, UK driving licence and have access to a car to use for business purposes (unless you have a disability as defined by the Equality Act 2010).
Main duties of the job
You will be responsible for operational delivery of the service, leading and managing a multidisciplinary team.
Working closely with a programme manager, you will test new models of care, identifying interventions which make the most difference to this patient cohort, and evaluating the success of the service.
Clinically, you will be from a nursing, physiotherapy, or occupational therapy background and will have appropriate clinical experience to be able to support a cohort of residents with moderate to severe frailty who have had 2 or more unplanned admissions within the last year.
