Walk in Service Development Manager
Join us at an exciting time of change.

The Walk-In Service, hosted by the Out of Hours Primary Care (GMED) team, is recruiting a Walk-In Service Development Manager to help shape and deliver an innovative national pilot programme that is transforming urgent primary care across Scotland.

Walk-In Services give people rapid, same-day access to urgent care without needing an appointment. As part of our Senior Management Team, you will play a key role in driving service improvement, supporting staff, and influencing the future delivery model across three locations in Grampian.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is passionate about high-quality urgent care, skilled in operational delivery, and ready to step into a leadership role with real impact.

About The Role
Due to the operational and service-critical nature of this post, the role is expected to be worked primarily on-site. The postholder will regularly be present within Walk-In Centre locations to support staff, oversee operational processes, and respond to emerging service needs.

The postholder will need flexibility to work evenings, weekends and Public Holidays as required. You will also join the Senior Manager On-Call rota (1 in 4 weeks) to respond to adverse events and incidents during the out-of-hours period.

You should be IM&T; literate with excellent communication and negotiation skills, and have previous experience working within a healthcare setting. The role is based in Aberdeen, with travel required across Grampian. Therefore a full, clean driving licence is essential.
