Overview
Join Meridian to deliver high-impact healthcare implementation projects across the UK, providing better value for the healthcare provider. This is not a leadership or IT role. You’ll be embedded in clinical environments, helping teams adopt new clinical practices and improve productivity and outcomes through direct engagement and coaching. The ideal candidate will have NHS experience and/or strong implementation experience with a similar productivity-based consultancy delivering measurable improvements. Projects start: September/October 2025. Contractors must be available for on-site work and adaptable to changing priorities.
What you will contribute
* Be an agile team member delivering implementation programmes that embed behavioural change across clinical and operational teams.
* Work shoulder to shoulder to support and influence clinicians and managers to redesign workflows, reduce waste and improve patient pathways using GIRFT and other evidence-based approaches.
* Coach, run workshops and engage frontline staff so new practices stick.
* Set and monitor outcome and value metrics (clinical outcomes, waiting times, resource utilisation) and report impact.
* Build strong relationships with senior clinical and operational stakeholders and act as a practical, trusted advisor.
* Produce roadmaps that combine programme delivery with explicit change-management and benefit-realisation plans.
Who we’re looking for
* Proven experience in designing and executing improvement plans as well as implementing change that demonstrably improved clinical outcomes and delivered value for a healthcare provider.
* Thorough understanding of GIRFT or equivalent quality-improvement frameworks and how to apply them in practice.
* Experience in the NHS is ideal — but candidates with equivalent implementation experience in healthcare or related sectors will be considered.
* Strong analytical skills (data to insight), facilitation and influencing skills, and experience presenting to stakeholders at all levels.
* Comfortable travelling extensively and able to stay away from home during the working week when required.
