Job description

Permanent Part-Time GP Opportunity - 4 Sessions Per Week Are you looking for the benefits of working in a small, community-focused practice while enjo...

As a Symphony GP, you would undertake all the clinical duties associated with

a GP working in primary care, without the responsibilities and risks associated

with being a partner. We can offer opportunities depending on your experience and the level of

responsibility you take on at the practice.

All GPs working for us are paid as employees, unlike

Partners, which means less risk for you and more time to focus on patient care.

We put patients first, allowing GPs to work flexibly

according to need, so contributing to areas such as QOF, QI and research

projects providing a huge amount of variety to the role.

This would be an ideal role for a newly qualified GP, with full peer support provided.

Symphony Healthcare Services Limited was established in 2016 as part of the award-winning Symphony Programme Vanguard, developing new models of care. We now support 16 practices across Somerset providing care for over 100,000 patients.

Symphony has developed a model where each practice is encouraged to operate autonomously, but as a subsidiary of NHS Somerset Foundation Trust (SFT), and with backing from a central support team (HR, finance, corporate and strategic management matters).

Providing NHS services is at the heart of what we do. Our vision is to ensure that primary care is sustainable for patients and practices in Somerset and we aim to be a national exemplar for primary care provision.

We work closely with our practice teams to grow, enhance and transform patient care and working practices, with innovation and technology at our core.

Symphony welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and underrepresented groups. When undertaking recruitment and selection for our services. We are committed to equality of opportunity for all.

Symphony offers many fantastic employee benefits, including the option to join a NHS or NEST pension scheme, plus varied salary sacrifice options (see attached poster), plus generous annual leave, flexible working from day one of employment and home working options where appropriate to the role.

Thank you for your interest in joining Symphony! We look forward to hearing from you and receiving your application.
