The National Patient Safety Team is searching for an exceptional individual to join the Advice and Guidance Team as the Patient Safety Clinical Lead (Ambulance).
This is a unique opportunity to work alongside expert teams who support the detection and progression of new and emerging safety issues identified from a range of sources including the Learn from Patient Safety Events Service (LFPSE). This work underpins the development of advice and guidance to the NHS, including National Patient Safety Alerts, fulfilling NHS England’s statutory duties.
This 0.4wte role provides highly specialist clinical advice, specifically relating to ambulance services, to the National Patient Safety Team and partner organisations.
The role requires a person with advanced clinical, system and safety insight. You will be experienced in synthesising complex clinical and patient safety data to develop insight and strategies to improve safety at system level, either directly or by working with internal and external stakeholders. You will be an excellent communicator.
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms — enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR). This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
