Regional Manager

The post is for the Centre for Pharmacy Postgraduate Education (CPPE), established in May 1991, which has responsibility for provision of continuing professional development for pharmacists and pharmacy technicians on the GPhC register providing NHS and Public Health services in England. CPPE works with Health Education England to identify pharmacy professionals’ development needs, produces and implements educational and training programmes to meet these needs and liaises with other professionals within the healthcare team and stakeholders as part of this process.

The job is about identifying learning needs, facilitating and providing learning activities, including online and face-to-face workshops and support for open learning on a local basis, and encouraging more pharmacy professionals to take part in open learning programmes, online learning/assessment and attend workshops. The regional tutor hours means that you will be expected to be proactive and responsive in identifying and delivering learning experiences. You will

work with local leaders and commissioners to support the pharmacy workforce learning needs. These roles will work across a wider geography

than previously. An important feature of the role is supporting the regional manager with networking and promotion of all CPPE learning materials. The bulk of the administrative component will be undertaken by the head office support team, so that the role of the regional tutor is primarily educational/learning support rather than organisational. However, some organisation and administration is required at a local level to facilitate local needs. Regional tutors have line manager responsibilities for event tutors within the region.

In accepting the post, you will be expected to undertake all meetings (approx. 2 national and 3 local) and training identified as necessary for the role as regional tutor.

What you will get in return:

• Fantastic market leading Pension scheme
• Excellent employee health and wellbeing services including an Employee Assistance Programme
• Exceptional starting annual leave entitlement, plus bank holidays
• Additional paid closure over the Christmas period
• Local and national discounts at a range of major retailers
