Primary Care Careers
We are pleased to announce that the Primary Care Careers (PCC) pilot offering recruitment support to community pharmacies across N&W and SNEE ICBs will be extended and widened from the 1st April 2024.
The PCC team are an ICB-level recruitment service that is currently funded and supported across 5 eastern region ICBs (HWE, MSE, BLMK, N&W and SNEE), providing a dedicated recruitment support function for general practice teams; however, the service is currently being widened to include a pilot that offers support to pharmacy, optometry and dentistry teams.
If you have a vacancy for any job role across the team that you would like help to recruit for, we would strongly suggest you utilise this funded (free to you), tailored and personalised service that takes much of the leg work away from your busy team and lets the team at Primary Care Careers do the advertising across Indeed, NHS Jobs, their dedicated website and social media. They will then help you by managing applications and provide you with a shortlist of potential applicants for you to contact to arrange interviews.
PCC is the largest primary care recruiter on NHS Jobs in England, and we are pleased to hear that Pledger Pharmacy in Norfolk has recently recruited two pharmacy assistants via the support of the PCC team – these applicants came directly from the Primary Care Careers website.
PCC update 2023/24 activity through the service, mainly GP usage, but gives an indication of how the service can help with recruitment.
