Job title: Project Manager for Substance Misuse in General Practice (SMMGP)
Salary: AfC Band 6 £28,923.60 - £38,591 inclusive of HCA
Contract: 12 month fixed-term contract
Based: National Treatment Agency, London

This is an exciting opportunity to continue the development of the Substance Misuse in General Practice (SMMGP), which is an independent organisation that works in partnership with the Royal College of General Practitioners and National Treatment Agency. For over ten years SMMGP has supported GPs and other members of the primary health care teams in the provision of community-based treatment and care for substance misusers in England.

We at SMMGP are looking for a highly motivated individual with strong project management skills and a background in substance misuse treatment to maintain and further develop its existing activities.

Often working in a sole capacity, you will have a wide range of responsibilities, including input into and the interpretation of National Health and Home Office drugs policy, management of the project website, publishing the regular newsletter Network, and supporting primary care providers and commissioners to develop and implement existing and innovative approaches to primary care substance misuse treatment. You will therefore have excellent organisational, negotiation and presentational skills with experience in the field of substance misuse treatment, together with the ability to work on your own initiative to tight deadlines.

For logistical reasons the post is based in the head office of the National Treatment Agency, though being based in one of the nine regional offices could be a possibility.

The post is funded for one year in the first instance, and a secondment could be considered.

Closing date for applications is Friday 5th December 2008
Interview date: w/c Monday 15th December 2008
