Do you want to shape the future of NHS infrastructure and lead early-stage planning for some of the most ambitious capital projects in UK healthcare?
The Northern Care Alliance NHS Foundation Trust (NCA) delivers hospital and community healthcare across Salford, Oldham, Bury and Rochdale, serving a population of over 1 million people. With 20,000 staff, we operate one of the NHS’s largest and most ambitious capital investment programmes.
As part of our expansion, we are looking for a detail-driven and forward-thinking Strategic Programme Manager to join our Capital team. If you’re passionate about shaping project feasibility, decant strategy, and business case development—and you bring a surveying, architectural, or cost-planning background—this role offers real purpose and impact.
You’ll take ownership of RIBA stages 0–2, leading the scoping and development of future-facing healthcare infrastructure projects. You’ll work in collaboration with clinical leaders, estates professionals and multi-disciplinary teams to define and prioritise the next generation of NCA’s capital investments.
What You’ll Do:
·Lead feasibility, service user engagement, and early design development
·Create elemental cost plans and project briefs to inform strategic investment decisions
·Draft strategic business cases, design options and initial appraisals
·Shape decant and phasing strategies for complex estate reconfigurations
·Ensure compliance with NHS healthcare standards including HTM, HBN and CDM regulations
·Support early-stage prioritisation across a multi-site, multi-million-pound capital pipeline
About You:
You’re a structured thinker with excellent communication skills and a background in surveying, construction, or architecture. You’ll need:
·A degree in building surveying, quantity surveying, construction, or architecture
·Experience managing project feasibility and early-stage design in healthcare environments
·Understanding of NHS estate guidance and capital project standards (HTMs/HBNs) and building regulations
·Ability to translate clinical and operational requirements into viable capital project briefs
Bonus Points:
·Chartered status (e.g. RICS, CIOB, MAPM)
·Experience with AutoCAD and elemental cost planning tools
Why Join NCA?
This is your chance to contribute to one of the most exciting capital investment programmes in UK healthcare. You’ll shape the way infrastructure meets future healthcare needs—working in a high-performing, collaborative, and values-led team.
