Salaried GP

An exciting opportunity to join our established and forward-thinking GP practice in Folkestone

We are looking for an enthusiastic and committed Salaried GP to join our friendly and supportive practice, working 6-8 sessions per week.

This is an excellent opportunity for a GP who is looking for a well-organised practice with a strong team ethos, a varied patient population and the opportunity to play an important part in shaping the future of the practice.

About us

We are an established GP practice serving patients in Folkestone, Kent, with a committed clinical and administrative team. We place a strong emphasis on providing high-quality patient care while supporting our clinicians to work effectively within a modern primary care environment.

Our practice operates a total triage model allowing clinical workload to be managed appropriately and ensuring patients are directed to the most suitable member of the clinical team. We work closely with our wider primary care network and have access to a range of additional clinical roles and services.

The practice has an experienced and supportive GP team, alongside a multidisciplinary workforce, and we are committed to developing our services and ways of working. The practice is also a GP training practice providing development to Doctors wishing to become GP's and we are looking to expand this in the future.

An exciting time to join us

We are currently working on plans to secure new, modern premises for the practice. This is an important and exciting development for the practice and will provide an opportunity to help shape the future working environment and services we offer to our patients.

The new premises project is progressing through its design and development stages, making this a particularly interesting time for a GP considering joining the practice.

The role

We are seeking a GP to work 6-8 sessions per week, although we are happy to discuss individual working arrangements with the right candidate.

• Provide high-quality, patient-centred general medical services.
• Work collaboratively with our existing GP and multidisciplinary team.
• Participate in the practice's total triage system, including regular triage GP sessions.
• Contribute to clinical meetings, significant event reviews, audits and practice development.
• Support the continued development of our clinical services.
• Participate in the practice's shared responsibility for safeguarding, prescribing, quality improvement and other areas of clinical governance.
• Have the opportunity to become involved in the development of our new premises and the future direction of the practice.

For the right candidate, there may also be the possibility of future partnership.

Whilst this position is initially offered as a salaried GP role, we would be interested in developing a longer-term relationship with a GP who wishes to become more involved in the strategic and operational development of the practice.

We would therefore be very happy to discuss future partnership possibilities with applicants who have an interest in this.

• 6-8 sessions per week
• Competitive salaried GP package, negotiable depending on experience and commitment.
• A supportive and friendly clinical team.
• A varied and interesting caseload.
• Structured clinical and practice meetings.
• A modern approach to workload management through total triage.
• Excellent opportunities to work alongside our wider multidisciplinary team.
• Opportunities for professional development and involvement in practice improvement.
• The opportunity to contribute to the development of our new premises project.
• Potential for future partnership for the right candidate.
• A well-established practice with an ambitious vision for the future.

About you

• GMC registered and on the NHS England Performers List.
• An experienced and committed clinician.
• Passionate about delivering high-quality general practice.
• A good communicator and team player.
• Comfortable working within a modern primary care model.
• Interested in contributing to the wider development of the practice.
• Ideally looking for a longer-term role and, potentially, future partnership.

Whether you are an experienced GP looking for a new challenge or a GP who is keen to become more involved in the future development of a practice, we would be pleased to hear from you.
