Join us at University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust (UHL) and be part of a team that’s making a real difference in the way healthcare is delivered. Together, let's create a stronger, more integrated NHS for our patients.
Our vision to be leading in healthcare, trusted in communities sets out our strategy to 2030, our goal areas are high-quality care for all, ensuring UHL is a great place to work, developing partnerships for impact, and achieving research and education excellence.
Delivery of our strategy is underpinned by an exciting multi-million-pound investment which will create new hospital facilities by 2030, radically improving patient and colleague experience.
Lead the strategic development and implementation of integrated care pathways between primary care, general practice, and UHL.
Strengthen the transfer of care processes to ensure smooth patient pathways and improved communication between UHL and General Practice.
Develop and maintain strong working relationships with GPs, Primary Care Networks (PCNs), and other stakeholders through regular forums and events to support continuous improvement.
Oversee the design and delivery of UHL’s corporate service support offer to general practice, including digital/IT support, recruitment, finance, and other non-clinical functions.
Prepare UHL to bid for GP contracts (e.g., GMS, PMS, APMS) when opportunities arise, ensuring legal and operational readiness.
Lead initiatives to reshape services traditionally delivered in secondary care, focusing on preventative care and long-term condition management within primary care settings.
Collaborate closely with UHL’s GP Executives, strategy and planning managers, and other key leaders to ensure alignment with the organization's strategic goals.
Our new strategy, developed with the support and feedback of colleagues, patients, and partners, is our compass for the next seven years (2023-2030).
We have four primary goals:- high-quality care for all,
- being a great place to work,
- partnerships for impact, and
- research and education excellence
And we will embed health equality in all we do - taking active steps to reduce the avoidable differences in healthcare that some people face, working in partnership with communities.
Our strategy is underpinned by new values and we will work to ensure they are an everyday reality for all:- we are compassionate,
- we are proud,
- we are inclusive, and
- we are one team
This is an exciting moment as we look to the future with clarity on what we already do well and where we need to focus our energies to make an even bigger difference for the people we serve.
