Dear Candidate

​

Putting together and developing the top team is one of my most important jobs as Chief Executive and Registrar.  Since we set up the GPhC in 2010 the top team has successfully led the GPhC’s establishment and development.

​

An exciting opportunity has emerged for a new Associate Director of Finance and Procurement.  As part of our evolution we are currently developing our 10 year vision focusing on the work to transform all aspects of our operating model and how we deliver services.  A model that will help us plan, deliver and maintain a sustainable financial position, including service and digital transformation focusing on customer service and the online experience for our registrants, applicants, those raising concerns and other GPhC stakeholders. 

​

A cornerstone to the current and future success of the GPhC is our workforce and our robust and continually evolving organisational development strategy that is firmly aligned with the values of the GPhC.  

​

Our governing council has a clear strategic vision in which pharmacy regulation plays a key role in improving pharmacy practice and, ultimately, the health and wellbeing of people in England, Scotland and Wales.  All grounded in the public assurance which good quality regulation provides.  With our set-up stage behind us and many reasons to be optimistic, not least in terms of our relationships internally and externally. Now is a great time for you to be thinking of joining us for this next phase of our development.

​

Like all groups, our top team benefits from diverse styles and personalities. Whether you are the life and soul of the party or the quiet thoughtful type, if you’re going to succeed as a director here you will be someone who:

• is highly motivated around doing the right thing, well;

• embraces their responsibility as a role model of professionalism;

• offers and welcomes leadership, challenge, coaching and care to and from all those around you;

• takes a strategic approach to relationships as well as to resources and operations.

​

If you fit the bill, and you think we might be right for you, please read on.
