Job description

Business Director Active Care Group•Manchester

Come and join one of the UK’s largest independent providers in neuro and mental healthcare. We proudly employ over 4000+ people - no matter what your experience, we have jobs for everyone.

Are you an experienced and commercially focused Business Director looking for the opportunity to lead the growth and development of a brand-new specialist rehabilitation service?

Active Neuro Manchester is an exciting new specialist rehabilitation service preparing to open, providing rehabilitation for people with neurological conditions, spinal injuries and polytrauma. We are looking for a Business Director to join us at this formative stage and play a pivotal role in establishing the service, developing our presence across the region and driving sustainable growth from the outset.

This is a unique opportunity to build a service rather than inherit one. Working closely with our clinical and operational leadership teams, you will help shape the commercial strategy for Active Neuro Manchester, establish our position within the specialist rehabilitation market and develop the relationships and referral networks needed to make the service successful.

As Business Director, you will take a lead role in developing strong relationships with case managers, solicitors, insurers, commissioners, healthcare professionals and other key referral partners. You will build awareness of the new service, develop a strong referral pipeline and ensure that prospective clients and referrers experience a responsive, professional and clinically credible pathway from initial enquiry through to admission or commencement of rehabilitation.

You will have a particular focus on developing our private, case-managed and medico-legal markets, identifying opportunities for growth and working collaboratively with our clinical teams to translate the breadth and quality of our rehabilitation offer into a compelling proposition for clients and referrers.

As part of a new service, you will also have the opportunity to influence how our commercial and referral processes operate from the beginning – helping establish effective systems for enquiry management, relationship management, pipeline visibility, conversion and ongoing engagement with our referral partners.

We are looking for someone who combines commercial drive with an understanding of specialist healthcare and rehabilitation. You will be comfortable developing new relationships, opening new markets and identifying opportunities, while recognising that sustainable growth is built on clinical quality, strong partnerships and delivering excellent outcomes for clients.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to have a genuine impact: to launch a new service, build its reputation and referral network, and help establish Active Neuro Manchester as a leading specialist rehabilitation provider in the region.

If you are an ambitious Business Director who is excited by the opportunity to create, develop and grow something new, we would love to hear from you.
