Project manager
Posted: 24 August
Offer description

Social network you want to login/join with:

Open to candidates across the UK; must be willing to travel and stay away from home during the working week when required.

Overview

Join Meridian to deliver high-impact healthcare implementation projects across the UK. This role focuses on embedding behavioural change that improves clinical outcomes and delivers better value for the healthcare provider. The ideal candidate will have NHS experience and/or strong implementation experience delivering measurable improvements.

What you’ll do

* Lead implementation programmes that embed behavioural change across clinical and operational teams.
* Work with 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 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 senior stakeholders.
* Comfortable travelling extensively and able to stay away from home during the working week when required.

Additional info

* This is not an IT role (but involves data) — it is focused on changing behaviours and clinical practice to improve productivity and outcomes.
* Projects start: September/October 2025. Contractors must be available for on-site work and adaptable to changing priorities.
