We’re looking for a dedicated and experienced Nurse Case Manager to join our team in Tunbridge Wells or Bristol on a full-time, permanent basis.

If you’re passionate about making a difference and have the relevant experience, we’d love to hear from you!

Key responsibilities:

• Manage and prioritise clinical negligence referrals from other departments, ensuring thorough assessment, appropriate action, and escalation when needed.
• Support the delivery of the TPR 2026 savings target by referring cases and members to the TPR team.
• Contribute to the Clinical Injury Support (CIS) team’s objectives by helping with financial recovery and improving member satisfaction.
• Contact and support members affected by clinical negligence or faulty products, providing clear advice to achieve satisfactory resolutions.
• Handle cases from initial diary entry to resolution, ensuring compliance with SLAs and GDPR.
• Liaise with internal stakeholders, answer queries about ongoing CIS cases, and attend internal meetings to share relevant provider information.
• Conduct detailed research on cases, including claims, recalled products, and high-risk surgical cases under investigation.
• Use medical expertise to support the TPR Team, especially when reviewing medical records or complex cases.
• Assist the CIS and TPR Team Manager with strategic initiatives aimed at increasing case leads, enhancing recoveries, and improving operational efficiencies.
