2. Skills and Experience

Administration of the AvMA Panel

The bulk of the administration and management tasks do not require specialist skills; however, assistance is provided by the PA to the CEO when required.

AvMA has a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) driven computer system throughout the organisation, the introduction has been phased and the applicant should be confident enough with sufficient IT skills to onboard the new system. The CRM works with Microsoft Dynamics 365 a data driven software solution which is intended to manage, track and store information. AvMA considers IT to be an ongoing commitment and the new panel accreditation manager should be willing to consider ways in which AvMA can maximise the impact of the CRM to improve services and data collection on key issues identified from panel related activities.

Tasks such as updating and preparing new panel application documents and report forms will require medical and legal input, the panel application interview process will involve discussions about topical medico legal issues and for this reason the post would suit someone who has a legal background, ideally qualified as a solicitor or barrister, preferably with clinical negligence accreditation. A a medical background would be helpful.

Assessment of new applications, interviews and dealing with correspondence

The Panel Accreditation Manager is primarily responsible for the assessment of new panel accreditation applications.

The role of Panel Accreditation Manager would suit someone who has practised as a claimant clinical negligence lawyer who is looking to draw on their expertise and experience in a new role.The successful applicant should be confident in assessing former peers and colleagues in a fair and impartial way.

The nature of this work is such that the Panel Accreditation Manager can come into possession of sensitive information, discretion and respecting confidentiality are key qualities for this role. 

Reaccreditations

Reaccreditation assessments are done internally by the Panel Accreditation Manager, occasionally assistance can be provided by members of the internal panel assessment team.

AvMA aims to make reaccreditations more straightforward for practitioners and the new appointee will be expected to liaise with the profession to understand where they consider the biggest hurdles to reaccreditation lie and to consider how these can be overcome without compromising standards. 

AvMA receives a minimum of 15 applications for reaccreditation per annum, however numbers are usually considerably higher, up to 30 per annum.It is thought that the reaccreditation process could be designed to be more streamlined and user friendly for both the applicant and in house.

Other AvMA Panel assessments

In addition to assessing AvMA panel applications and reaccreditations the Panel Accreditation Manager will need to assess applications from accredited panel members who have changed firms.

Change of firm applications tend to be straightforward if the applicant has been on the panel for some time and is going to a firm where there is another AvMA panel member but the process is more in depth for those going to a firm which does not have another AvMA panel member.  The Panel Application Manager needs to be confident that the new firm can meet the minimum standards and supervision requirements required of a first time panel application. 

There are about 5 applications for changes of firm rising to a maximum of 10 per annum. 

Interim Reviews

From time to time first time applicants may demonstrate that they largely meet the core criteria for AvMA Panel membership but there may be some areas that require improvement.In those cases, AvMA can award the applicant AvMA panel status subject to a review sometime later.The Panel Accreditation Manager is responsible for following up that review and examining progress made.The review is an opportunity to identify if the applicant has succeeded in strengthening the areas of weakness identified.If they have not, they risk losing their AvMA panel status entirely. 

There are about 3 interim reviews per annum, currently not exceeding 6.

• Produce accurate and timely project management documentation, including reports and financial claims.
• Lead procurement and oversee contractors.
• Provide leadership, support and clear direction to the Farm Support Specialist and project team.
• Contribute directly to advisory or practical delivery where appropriate, including site visits, farmer meetings, demonstrations or priority actions.

Project outputs and wider responsibilities

You will ensure:

• Effective collaboration between farmers, RSPB colleagues and external advisers to deliver objectives through the SFS and mechanisms such as Farming Connect.
• Regular communication and engagement with decision-makers and stakeholders, including Welsh Government and statutory agencies.
• Development of a credible legacy plan with partners to sustain and scale delivery beyond the project lifetime (e.g. via the SFS Collaborative Layer).
• A well-managed project close, including final reporting, follow-on actions, and clear communication of outcomes and lessons learned.

Essential skills, knowledge and experience

• Strong financial management skills and attention to detail.
• Experience working within a structured project management framework (e.g. PRINCE2 or equivalent).
• Experience delivering complex, multi-partner projects.
• Proven leadership and influencing skills without direct line management authority.
• Ability to produce clear, concise written communications for diverse audiences.
• Strong facilitation, negotiation and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent organisational and time-management ability.
• Degree-level qualification in a relevant subject or equivalent experience.

Desirable skills, knowledge and experience

• Experience turning conservation evidence, policy or agri-environment schemes into effective delivery.
• Knowledge of Welsh farming, agricultural systems and rural culture.
• Ability to communicate in Welsh, spoken and written.
