Quality and practice development lead jobs
How's your job search on our site?
At Pilgrims Hospices, clinical volunteers are a vital part of how we care for patients and families. Working alongside our clinical teams, they support everything from ward-based care to therapy services, bereavement groups and community programmes. Their time, compassion and presence help shape the experience of care in very real and meaningful ways.
We are now looking for a Clinical Volunteer Lead to provide leadership to this work across our services.
This is a unique opportunity to lead a large and diverse group of clinical volunteers, working across inpatient, therapy, psychosocial and community settings. You will ensure volunteers are well supported, appropriately trained and able to make a meaningful contribution, while working closely with clinical teams to maintain a consistent and effective approach across the organisation.
This is not a desk-based role. It is a visible, hands-on leadership position, working alongside teams and volunteers in practice, building relationships, supporting people day to day and understanding what is happening across services.
It’s an exciting time to be joining Pilgrims Hospices, with a clear focus on strengthening how we support our workforce and deliver high quality, person-centred care. This role offers the opportunity to make a real difference, both in the experience of patients and families, and in how we work across services.
We are looking for someone who brings clinical credibility and strong relational leadership skills, and who is confident working across teams, supporting others and leading through presence, judgement and practical involvement.

This is an opportunity to use your clinical, audit and quality improvement experience to influence the safety, effectiveness and consistency of services that support people affected by gambling harms.
As Clinical Audit and Improvement Manager, you will lead GamCare’s clinical audit programme and play a key role in helping teams understand what is working well, where improvements are needed and how learning can be embedded in practice. Working within the Quality and Safety Team, you will use audit findings, service data, feedback and lived experience insight to produce clear reports, practical recommendations and improvement plans that support continuous improvement across our clinical services.
You will work closely with Quality Leads, Service Managers, clinical teams and People and Organisational Development colleagues to make sure learning is shared, understood and applied. This will include planning and delivering audits, thematic reviews and evaluations; developing quality improvement tools and governance resources; supporting preparation for external audits or quality reviews; and designing training, workshops and Model of Care learning sessions that help colleagues apply best practice with confidence.
This is a role for someone who can combine analytical rigour with a collaborative, supportive approach. You will help turn evidence into action, supporting teams to reflect, learn and improve while keeping the needs and experiences of people affected by gambling harms at the centre of decision-making.
About you
You may already be working in clinical audit, quality improvement, service monitoring, clinical governance or service development within health, social care or the voluntary sector. You will bring experience of working in clinical services, ideally within addiction or mental health, and of delivering interventions such as psychosocial interventions, CBT or motivational interviewing.
You will be confident interpreting service data, audit findings and quality metrics, and translating them into reports, recommendations and learning that are clear, constructive and useful. You will understand how to engage busy clinical and operational teams, build trust and support reflective learning without losing sight of standards, risk and accountability.
We are looking for someone who communicates with sensitivity and clarity, enjoys working collaboratively and can help people see quality improvement as practical, meaningful and connected to better service delivery. You will also share GamCare’s commitment to inclusion, integrity and making lived experience central to our work.
