Orkney's Health and Social Care Partnership and NHS Orkney are seeking to recruit a professionally qualified and registered Associate Medical Director (Primary Care - Community) with a level of experience to effectively lead and develop change whilst ensuring a strong commitment to service excellence.
The Integration Joint Board has been delivering services across the islands using innovative approaches supported by the integration agenda in a remote and rural setting.
