As we move through the phases of the COVID-19 response, NHS Scotland needs to be able to respond to the pandemic as it continues to evolve. The National Contact Tracing Service significantly helps to disrupt community transmission of the virus by breaking the chain of transmission between individuals through contacting people who have been diagnosed with COVID-19 and identifying those people with whom they have had contact.
To support the on-going work in the National Contact Centre we are recruiting for a Resource Manager who will be responsible for supporting the Contact Tracing Service Delivery Team in developing and delivering strategies which ensure optimal and adequate resource is available to deliver the Contact Tracing service throughout Scotland.
You will be responsible for the deployment of all core and Staff bank resources across all Contact Tracing rosters ensuring resources to be effectively deployed across the service.
You should have significant experience of working in a resource management environment. Demonstrable experience at a managerial level in a complex, multidisciplinary organisation is required and significant experience of working in a pressurised environment, delivering to tight deadlines and delivering reports and presenting information at a senior managerial level is a must.
Our benefits package includes pension scheme, comprehensive range of work life balance policies, occupational health services, learning resource centres and discounted leisure, financial and shopping benefits.
The successful candidate will be required to undergo a Disclosure Scotland check.
