This is an internal process for outgoing MSK providers in Brighton & Hove and/or West Sussex. Applicants must currently be employed by Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust, Here or University Hospitals Sussex.
Main duties of the job
The role of the MSK Health Clinical Director is to provide strong, visible, professional leadership and focus for the delivery of excellent quality of care and outcomes through the development of Clinicians whilst effectively managing people, financial and physical resources within the division relating to patient care.
This is a senior clinical leadership role in which the post holder will be responsible for the strategic direction and overall provision of the management of all clinical posts and the safety, quality, experience and effectiveness of all clinical services across a large portfolio. The post holder will ensure performance is managed effectively and that there is robust governance across all the functions in line with available resources and seek to continuously innovate and improve clinical outcomes, efficiency, and accessibility to MSK Health.
