Job Introduction

At Turning Point, we support people across the UK with substance misuse. As Clinical Services Manager, in Rochdale and Oldham Active recovery, you’ll make a real difference to their lives as you lead a team of talented NMPs and nurses and other substance misuse professionals to deliver a truly invaluable service. Progressing your nursing career with a sector leader, you’ll thrive on the challenge of balancing clinical duties with managing and motivating a nursing team. So, whilst this is a high profile, senior management post, you’ll enjoy the scope to see patients of your own, including those with complex substance misuse issues.

Role Responsibility

As NMP Clinical Services Manager, your vital role will involve a wide range of clinical duties, managing the prescribing and wellbeing clinics, completing audits and ensuring safeguarding.  You will also take the lead for aspects of the clinical governance of the service and some key performance indicators. You will lead your team to deliver the same high standards that you do, by providing clinical supervision to nurses, completing appraisals, delivering training and of course, ensuring that all they do is in line with the clinical code of conduct.

The Ideal Candidate

An inspiring role model, we'll expect you to already be a senior nurse with clinical experience in a drug and alcohol setting. Building relationships with colleagues, commissioners and service users alike will be a big part of what you do, we’re also looking for a Clinical Services Manager who can confidently engage and influence people.

As the safeguarding lead for the county, a working knowledge of safeguarding, substance misuse issues and legislation is key – as is the ability to recognise indicators of substance misuse and the issues that service users might face. NMC registered with an active PIN, you’ll also need the NMP qualification.
