Occupational Health jobs in United Kingdom

Join us at Priory Medical Centre, a forward-thinking, high-performing practice in the heart of Warwick, as our new Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP). This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated, patient-centred clinician to play a key role in delivering exceptional primary care to our growing community.

As an ANP at Priory, you’ll lead on the management of Long Term Conditions, with a particular focus on Diabetes, while also contributing to our same-day acute triage service. You’ll use your advanced clinical skills to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of conditions, working autonomously but with the full support of our experienced multidisciplinary team.

We’re a practice that invests in people. You’ll benefit from a collaborative environment, modern clinical systems, dedicated admin support, and opportunities to develop your specialist interests. Every day, you’ll make a tangible difference to patient health and help shape the future of high-quality primary care.

If you’re an enthusiastic ANP who thrives in a dynamic setting and is passionate about delivering outstanding patient care, we’d love to hear from you.

NO AGENCIES PLEASE

As an Advanced Nurse Practitioner at Priory Medical Centre, you’ll play a pivotal role in delivering high-quality, patient-focused care across both planned and same-day services. Your day-to-day work will be varied, autonomous, and rewarding.

You’ll take the lead in managing Long Term Conditions, with a specialist focus on Diabetes, providing comprehensive reviews, personalised care plans, medication optimisation, and proactive health coaching. Your expertise will help patients take control of their health and improve outcomes across our population.

Alongside this, you’ll run same-day acute triage clinics, assessing, diagnosing, and treating a broad spectrum of undifferentiated conditions. You’ll use your advanced clinical skills to make safe, effective decisions, request and interpret investigations, prescribe independently, and escalade or refer when appropriate.

You’ll work closely with our GPs, nurses, pharmacists, paramedics, and wider multidisciplinary team, contributing to a supportive, progressive environment. You’ll also be involved in continuity of care, safeguarding, quality improvement, and helping shape service delivery as primary care evolves.

This is a role for a motivated, confident ANP who enjoys variety, autonomy, and the chance to make a genuine difference every day. At Priory, your skills are valued and your impact is felt.

Priory Medical Centre is a well-established Warwick GP Partnership with a list size of approximately 18,900 patients and one branch surgery. We have 5 GP Partners and a full complement of additional staff including Salaried GPs, Advanced Nurse Practitioners, Practice Nurses, Health Care Assistants and administrative support. We are a recognised training practice for GP Registrars.

In June 2021, the practice moved into a brand new purpose built surgery designed with patient care in mind. The new building will be a modern, energy efficient & fit for purpose building that will enable the practice to provide better services to our patients. As a result of having the new facilities available, the practice closed the main Cape Road surgery, along with the Cape Road branch surgery. The new facilities will act as the main surgery, with a branch surgery still available to patients on Woodloes Park at the following address: 1 Brese Avenue, Woodloes Park, Warwick, CV34 5TS.
