Form of work
SalaryMemcom recruitment are working with a well-respected professional body to recruit an exceptional candidate who can develop the necessary plans, strategies, activities and training to overcome the long-term shortage in a specific group of medical professionals.
We need more of these medically trained professionals to support public health, and as the Head of Workforce Planning and Development, you will play a vital role in developing new initiatives to grow the workforce, including trainees, overseas professionals coming to the UK and those who wish to gain entry to the register of specialists via the portfolio pathway.
Each of these different routes works to a regulatory framework and the Head of Workforce Planning and Development will need to navigate these to achieve the overall objective of growing the future workforce.
You’ll be responsible for evolving our client’s vision and strategy for increasing the pipeline of prospective trainees as well as overseeing all UK training operations relating to trainees looking to enter the specialty.
You’ll also oversee the strategy created to drive global workforce initiatives and lead and motivate a high performing team in the delivery of a programme of activities.
Our ideal candidate will understand the background to workforce shortages and have successfully worked to overcome these in another organisation. Knowledge of the NHS and/or medical training and recruitment will be a distinct benefit.
Whilst our client operates a flexible working policy, it is expected that the successful candidate will need to work a minimum of two days from their London-based office, as well as travel as the role requires.
If you would like to know more, please contact Christian Turek at Memcom Recruitment, who will be happy to share a candidate pack and talk to you about the role in more detail. You can contact him via an email.
Application will be by CV and supporting statement. Again, please refer to the candidate pack for details.
Closing date for applications is 5pm on Monday, 8th April with interviews and assessments taking place week commencing 15th April.
