Vacancy Introduction
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of the operational leadership team working closely with Clinical colleagues within the Neighbourhood Nursing Out of Hours Service.
You will have good knowledge around the support staff need day to day, managing the E Roster, sickness, training and performance. You will have experience of complex decision making and working alongside HR.
You will understand capacity and demand and support with the drive to ensure that we deliver quality care, having the confidence and knowledge to work within business continuity. You will have an understanding of local and national drivers while ensuring the service works within set KPI’s.
Whilst this is a citywide service, the role is based at Hunslet Health Centre. Being visible is essential when developing relationships and supporting staff and some citywide travel may be required.
The service operates over a 7-day week (including weekends and bank holidays).
Whilst the role is predominately in the evening, some flexibility would be required to attend meetings/trainings etc during normal office hours.
The hours of work are 32 hours per week – which equates to 4 shifts 3 weeks in a month and 4 shifts one week of the month. Shift times would usually be 7pm-3am, some flexible working can be considered to ensure a good work life balance; however, this does need to fit in with the requirements of the service over a 7-day week.
As the Operational Support Manager there will be times when you need to deputise for the Operational Team Manager, having good insight into what’s going on in the service and be confident in reporting as a strategic level when necessary.
As Operational Support Manager, you will work with the Operational Team Manager and Service Manager to support and oversee staff across the service. You will manage data related to appraisals, one-to-ones, training, and performance, ensuring you have full insight into quality and outcomes. Using this information, you will work proactively to ensure daily, weekly, monthly, and annual targets are achieved.
You will manage staff on a day-to-day basis, including completing return-to-work interviews, supporting individuals through relevant policies, and liaising with Occupational Health and HR. Working with Clinical Team Managers, you will help identify areas for improvement and ensure all staff meet expected performance standards.
Alongside the Operational Team Manager, you will support rota oversight.
