Seacroft Primary Care Network; PCN Programme Manager Consultant

Purpose of the Role

The PCN Programme Manager (Consultant) will provide highly autonomous, specialist programme management support to enable delivery of priority PCN programmes and transformation initiatives.

The consultant will bring deep expertise in Quality Improvement, primary care financial flows, and digital/IT systems, supporting the PCN to deliver measurable improvements and maximise value from available resources.

This role provides additional programme management capacity and is not intended to be filled from existing programme management resources.

The consultant will agree priorities with PCN leadership and manage delivery independently, focusing on outcomes, impact, and sustainability rather than operational line management.

We are a group of four practices actively working together to support our patients in our area. We have a dedicated PCN Team who specialise in the proactive care of our patients within our community, providing coordinated, pro‑active, and integrated services.
