OVERVIEW

A Practical Guide to Effective Job Planning is organized by Healthcare (HC) - UK Conferences Ltd and will be held on Jan 29, 2027.

Description:
This National NHS Job Planning Conference will provide a practical update on improving individual, team and service-level job planning. The conference will support clinical, medical workforce, HR and operational leaders to move beyond job-plan completion rates and develop fair, collaborative and evidence-based approaches that align medical capacity with patient need, service priorities and available resources.

Through presentations, case studies and extended interactive sessions, delegates will develop their skills in leading job-plan reviews, using activity and workforce data, negotiating changes and managing difficult or disputed issues. The programme will also explore annualisation, team-based planning, governance, legal and contractual considerations, and how job planning can support productivity without squeezing out essential professional activity.

This conference will enable you to:

  • Understand current NHS England expectations for medical job planning
  • Align individual and team job plans with patient demand and service priorities
  • Improve governance, assurance and annual sign-off
  • Use workforce, activity and financial data more effectively
  • Lead fair, transparent and constructive job-plan discussions
  • Develop team-based, service-level and annualised approaches
  • Ensure leadership, education, supervision and improvement activity are recognised
  • Negotiate changes and manage difficult issues, mediation and appeals
  • Improve engagement with consultants and SAS doctors
  • Develop an action plan to improve job planning within your organisation
