Salaried GP – FTC

We are currently recruiting for A FTC SGP for our MMP All Saints Medical Centre in Birmingham

Midlands Medical Partnership is a Birmingham super-partnership currently caring for 72,000 Birmingham Cross-City CCG patients across North and South Birmingham operating out of 10 sites. The partnership was established in April 2009 and continues to grow as a single integrated primary care provider, alongside collaborative working with other similar organisations in our region as part of its strategic forward view.

The vision behind the creation of MMP is to improve and develop all that is excellent about traditional GP services – local GPs leading and working in local surgeries to provide long-term doctor/patient relationships based on the established values of trust and personalised care, whilst at the same time being part of a larger, more corporate business structure, allowing our practices and patients to benefit from the resources of a larger organisation, enabling us to improve the range and quality of patient services, improve access and patient responsiveness and improve learning across our organisation.

MMP’s core purpose is “to work within a culture of quality to constantly improve the care and service we give our patients.”

This dynamic partnership with a team of over 200 clinicians and staff is managed by a single executive board, with centralised organisational functions, strong leadership and clinical governance structures. The ambition and vision of the partnership is to provide large scale, integrated, multi-speciality care for its patients. Most of our sites are training practices and training in areas of special interest is greatly supported.

The Government is planning to make it a legal requirement for healthcare and social care staff to be vaccinated against COVID-19 unless they have a medical exemption. The legal requirement to be vaccinated will apply to individuals aged 18 or over who have direct, face-to-face contact with patients. This requirement will extend to all MMP roles.

Candidates with specialist skills, and/or interested in becoming GP trainers/qualified trainers are of particular interest

We consider Tier 2 Visa Sponsorship applications
