What this role is all about:
Are you a clinician looking to use your skills in a different way? Vitality offers an exciting opportunity for a healthcare professional to join our team. This role is ideal for a doctor with a broad medical background—preferably in oncology—a nurse specialist, or a pharmacist with strong research experience. However, we welcome applicants with a solid understanding of clinical research, policy-based decision-making, and stakeholder communication. Supporting the Chief Medical Officer and Medical Director, you'll help drive evidence-based funding decisions, promote sustainable healthcare, and encourage clinical innovation. The role requires balancing complex information with fiscal responsibility to ensure members receive high-quality, innovative care, while independently evaluating clinical evidence, member and provider input, and insurance policy terms.
Key Actions
* Develop new policies, conduct horizon scanning, understand emerging therapies and their impact on the claims fund, and maintain direct contact with external experts to gather insights and input on treatments.
* Proactively update clinical guidance, ensuring alignment with changing regulatory, clinical, and environmental trends.
* Act as a subject matter expert to support the claims management function - with a focus on complex case management - which may include representing Vitality in provider discussions.
* Identify opportunities and gaps in current processes and care pathways, and lead strategic initiatives aligned to delivering better value and health outcomes for our members.
* Collaborate with Compliance, Risk and QA departments to ensure regulatory compliance.
* Provide clinical and scientific input on business content, including marketing and promotional activities.
* Lead with a customer-focused mindset to support implementation of new technologies, products, and other initiatives.
* Deliver continuous learning and development initiatives across the business.
* Contribute to the publication of Vitality data and thought leadership to promote clinical excellence.
What do you need to thrive?
* You will need to hold a healthcare or life sciences qualification - or very strong work experience in the absence of this.
* Excellent and clear communications skills with the ability to influence widely.
* Deep understanding of critical appraisal.
* Ability to work with ambiguity, at pace, and across multiple projects.
So, what’s in it for you?
* Bonus Schemes - A bonus that regularly rewards you for your performance
* A pension of up to 12%- We will match your contributions up to 6% of your salary
