Shape the Future of Primary Care Today

What if you could transform careers, empower general practice teams and make a real difference every single day?

At PWCA CIC, we’re not just delivering education, we’re building the future workforce of primary care. We’re looking for an inspiring Regional Education Lead to influence workforce development at a regional level. By joining the team delivering our award-winning GPA Programme, you will lead a team of dedicated educators, ensure learners receive outstanding guidance and support, and play a key role in shaping how primary care systems evolve and thrive.

About Us

PCWA CIC is a primary care workforce and education organisation dedicated to making primary care the best place to work and learn. We design and deliver high-quality education and workforce programmes across GP practices, PCNs, Training Hubs, ICs, universities and national NHS partners.

Our national General Practice Assistant (GPA) Programme is delivered across all seven NHS England regions and has recently been recognised with a Princess Royal Training Award.

Education is central to our work. We prioritise engaging, practical and supportive learning that helps people progress in their careers. As a Community Interest Company, we reinvest income into strengthening our organisation, developing our workforce and supporting primary care systems.

About The Role

This senior regional role provides strategic leadership, educational direction and operational oversight for the GPA Programme across multiple IC areas.

The post holder leads Regional Educators, strengthens stakeholder relationships, supports workforce transformation and ensures consistent, high quality programme delivery aligned with national objectives.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead the strategic delivery and development of the GPA Programme across your region
  • Inspire, support and develop Regional GPA Educators to deliver exceptional learner experiences
  • Build influential relationships with ICBs, PCNs, Training Hubs and primary care leaders
  • Manage risks and monitor regional KPIs, driving quality, performance and continuous improvement across the programme

What We’re Looking For

  • Degree-level qualification in healthcare or equivalent experience
  • Significant experience in healthcare education, workforce development or primary care leadership
  • Experience leading teams and delivering programmes across complex healthcare systems and multiple locations
  • Senior level stakeholder engagement and influencing skills
  • Advanced facilitation, educational leadership and communication abilities
  • A passion for developing people and improving patient-facing services
  • A strategic mindset with the ability to turn vision into action

About You

  • Credible, professional and influential
  • Strategic thinker with strong operational focus
  • Collaborative, relationship centred and resilient
  • Innovative, solution focused and adaptable
  • Committed to excellence, inclusion and continuous improvement

Why Join Us?

  • BHN Extras: Available schemes include Cycle to Work, Car Salary Sacrifice, and Home & Tech Salary Sacrifice

Applications will close on the 16th of October.

PCWA CIC is a diverse place to work and we believe that for primary care to truly represent the populations that we serve then we need a workplace culture that truly reflects this. We particularly encourage applications from candidates who are likely to be underrepresented in the workforce.

Interviews are expected to take place during the week commencing 2nd of November 2026.
