Following on from the well-received newly-qualified GP mentor programme, we are collaborating with NHS England and Improvement in finding GP mentors to offer support to their colleagues at all stages of their career. This is a great portfolio working opportunity, enabling participating GPs to develop their mentoring, leadership, and coaching skills, all while supporting their fellow practitioners.

The overall aim is to retain experienced GPs working in primary care through this exciting portfolio working opportunity, while supporting other GPs at all stages of their career with high-quality mentoring. All participants will be funded to complete the European Mentoring and Coaching Council European Quality Aware (EQA), delivered by the NHS South West Leadership Academy.

To join, GP mentors need to work at least three clinical sessions per week and must be able to join the scheme for a minimum of one year.

For more information on this opportunity, please download the slide deck here.
