We’re IC24, a not-for-profit social enterprise providing high-quality Integrated Urgent Care (IUC) across the South and East of England. Every year, we deliver care to millions of patients through our 111, Clinical Assessment, and Face-to-Face Urgent Care Services.

We’re proud of our values - Innovation, Care, Respect and Excellence - and they’re at the heart of everything we do. Our purpose is simple: to make sure every patient gets the right care, at the right time, in the right place.

Our Face-to-Face (F2F) services are a vital part of that mission, providing urgent care out of hours when patients need it most. We’re a team that cares deeply about people –our patients and our colleagues – and we’re looking for a leader who shares that passion.

The role

As Operations Manager – Face-to-Face Integrated Urgent Care Services, you’ll take day-to-day responsibility for our clinical and non-clinical out-of-hours teams across Norfolk. You’ll manage Team Managers and oversee a workforce of around 100 colleagues, including clinicians, receptionists, drivers, and admin teams.

You’ll be accountable for ensuring our OOH sites run safely, efficiently and in line with contractual, quality and regulatory standards. That means managing rotas, performance, budgets and resources – while keeping patient experience, colleague engagement and operational excellence front and centre.

This is a hands‑on leadership role. You’ll spend time on‑site with your teams, ensuring they feel supported, valued and motivated. You’ll lead by example – engaging with frontline colleagues, building strong working relationships, and creating a culture where everyone understands the part they play in delivering excellent patient care.

You’ll also work closely with our clinical and quality leads to identify improvements, develop new ways of working and drive continuous service enhancement. Externally, you’ll represent IC24 with local system partners, helping to strengthen integration across urgent and primary care pathways.
