An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our expanding team at Community Healthcare Partners as an Incident and Complaints Investigator reporting to the Group Head of Customer Experience.

We are in the process of creating a national team of Investigators supported by two Administration Assistants. As one of our Investigators within the Governance Department, you will be responsible for supporting our operational management teams across the country by ensuring high quality investigations are carried out on all incidents and complaints within their area of the business.

We have contracts across the UK therefore, in this role you need to be prepared to travel up to 3 days a week within your designated region with the rest of your week at home or at a local office.

This role requires the successful candidate to investigate often sensitive and sometimes complex cases where things have gone wrong to help put things right and identify learning to prevent future reoccurrences.

To do this, you will collate often complex information, communicating with staff, internal subject matter experts, patients, their carers and families. You will need to work closely with individuals involved in incidents and complaints, external organisations, and stakeholders so you will need the ability to form strong working relationships and possess effective communication skills both written and verbal to be successful in this very varied, challenging but interesting role.
