Summary

A Vacancy at Northumbria Healthcare - NHCT Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust.


This is an exciting fixed term opportunity to join a Quality assurance team with a particular focus on clinical audit.

We are looking for an organised and resourceful individual with a ‘can-do’ attitude who likes working with people and data

This would make an ideal secondment.

The role involves working with different Business Units and specialties to develop and sustain a culture of quality improvement through clinical audit and other quality initiatives. The role will involve: developing audit projects and methodologies; monitoring activity; analysing quantitative and qualitative data; producing reports and presentations; interaction with front-line services; and liaising with staff at all levels in the organisation.

The post will be based at Cobalt but the post holder may be required to work at other sites within the Trust.

We manage three major locality hospitals at North Tyneside, Wansbeck and Hexham, plus a number of smaller community hospitals and clinics from Tynemouth to Berwick on Tweed, covering one of the largest geographical areas of any NHS trust in the country. Leading in innovation and quality – opening a state of the art Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital, the first of its kind in England. Do you want to work in one of the best performing NHS organisations in England? Work in an organisation that supports its staff and focuses on staff experience as much as it does the experience of its patients? You can live and breathe in an area that has the cleanest air, cost effective living, great nightlife, some of the best schools with a wealth of history available on your doorstep. Sound too good to be true? Well it isn’t, this is what you get when you work for Northumbria Healthcare, this is the Northumbria Way!
