Why this is worth applying to
Worth investigating if you want to move from clinical delivery into quality improvement, audit and service redesign, but the listing is too thin to judge fit — open the original NHS Jobs advert before committing.
Who should apply
Clinicians with audit, governance, teaching or pathway-redesign experience — particularly nurses, doctors and pharmacists who have led QI projects, incident reviews or guideline implementation and want a formal improvement role.
CV angle
Reframe clinical experience as improvement delivery: quantify QI projects led, audit cycles completed, measurable outcomes (e.g. reduced wait times, improved compliance rates), guideline implementation, multidisciplinary stakeholder work and datadriven decision-making. Name any methodology used (PDSA, Lean, six sigma, IHI Model for Improvement) only where genuinely applied.
Skills to highlight
- Quality improvement methodology (PDSA / Model for Improvement)
- Clinical audit and data analysis
- Patient safety and incident investigation
- Stakeholder engagement across multidisciplinary teams
- Change management and service redesign
- Report writing and presentation to governance committees
Role summary
An NHS quality improvement post supporting teams to design, run and evaluate service improvement and audit projects, typically involving facilitation, data analysis, governance reporting and stakeholder engagement rather than direct patient care.
