Are you an engaging individual who can help us to improve cancer outcomes and save more lives? Do you have experience and/or understanding of working in primary care?

Cancer Research UK, the North of Scotland Cancer Alliance and local Health Boards are partnering to improve the prevention and earlier diagnosis of cancer. Primary Care professionals, especially GPs and their practice teams, have a crucial role to play in early diagnosis - but we know this is a complex area. We are also engaging with a range of Healthcare Professionals across the cancer pathway to raise the profile of cancer, identify activities to improve cancer outcomes and make change happen at a local and regional level.

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Health Professional Engagement Facilitator Manager to lead the delivery of our work in North & East Scotland providing direct support to primary care teams in NHS Grampian and Tayside with remote contact within NHS Highland and Island Boards:

• Support North Cancer Alliance Plans by direct engagement with primary care teams to improve earlier detection rates in lung, colorectal, urology and skin cancer.

• You will also manage, train, develop and support a Health Professional Engagement Facilitator based in NHS Lothian
• Capture our activity and impact in this area

We're looking for a strong leader to join our team who has….

• Experience of partnering with a range of stakeholders to influence and develop sustainable change
• Demonstrable knowledge and experience of working in primary and /or secondary care and health service environments, including significant understanding of challenges faced by GPs
• Proven ability to effectively manage projects to achieve tangible business outcomes
• Experience of managing, developing and motivating others

As the role is field based, you'll also need to have tenacity and be comfortable working on your own as well as part of a team. As indicated the role involves engagement with GP practices in the North of Scotland region which requires frequent travel within the region. We, therefore, expect applicants to be based within this region. You can be home or office based or a mixture with space allocated in NHS Grampian's offices at Summerfield House, Eday Road, Aberdeen.

If this describes you, join our team as we work hard to beat cancer sooner. For full role details, please see our candidate pack here:

We’re looking for someone with a passion for campaigning to join us for an initial 12 month fixed-term contract to take our advocacy work to the next level.

As the only UK charity for people affected by all lung and respiratory disease – from mild asthma through to lung cancer – the British Lung Foundation (BLF) is here for every one of them.
