This aligns with both Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) and national healthcare strategies
Working closely with the Joint Chief Medical Officer and the Chief Strategy Officer, the Director will lead on brining care closer to people’s own homes and communities, enabling earlier intervention and prevention, reducing health inequalities and reducing avoidable hospital admissions, working collaboratively with General Practitioners (GPs), Local Authorities (LA), Public Health, Social Care and the Voluntary, Community, Social and Faith Enterprise (VCSFE) sector to co-produce innovative ways of working
Additionally, the Director will support the development of the Target Operating Model (TOM) for the redevelopment of North Manchester General Hospital, adhering to the principles of OneMFT.
