The Birmingham and District GP Emergency Room (Badger) Ltd is a not-for-profit social enterprise healthcare co-operative with an annual turnover of £13 million and a staff population of 422 people. Badger was established in 1996 by local doctors who joined together to initially provide an improved out-of-hours service for their patients.

Rated as ‘Outstanding’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), we have built up a respected reputation throughout Birmingham and the surrounding areas. We have a national profile in the sector for being an exceptional organisation where quality service and quality improvement are at the heart of what we do.

We know that the future will be different with continued pressures on health sector services and an increased focus on improving value. However, against this shifting delivery context, one thing remains a constant - our passion to provide care that people can trust. We have a strong and committed board and a leadership team who ensure the organisation holds true to its values and delivers quality services that meet the needs of patients and commissioners.

We are now able to offer this exciting opportunity to join us as our Head of HR. As a suitable candidate, you will be a self-starter with a clear sense of purpose.
