HT Practice is offering a permanent Salaried GP (Floater) position within a well-established group of practices across Tameside, including The Highlands Surgery, Medlock Vale, King Street Medical Centre, and West End Medical Centre.
This role is ideal for a GP who enjoys clinical variety without the administrative and managerial pressures of partnership.

- Routine face-to-face and telephone consultations
- Managing clinical administration such as test results, hospital correspondence, and referrals
- Using EMIS Web and Docman for efficient clinical workflow
- Providing occasional cross-practice clinical cover within the network
- Working collaboratively with a multidisciplinary team to support patient outcomes
- There are no weekend sessions or extended hours, supporting a healthy work–life balance.
What We Offer
- Permanent salaried role with sessional flexibility (4–8 sessions)
- 6 weeks’ annual leave plus study leave entitlement
- Full indemnity cover provided
- Supportive training practices with experienced clinicians
- Exposure to diverse clinical interests including women’s health, palliative care, minor surgery, and GP training
- Friendly, inclusive, and well-organised practice teams
- Tier 2 / Skilled Worker visa sponsorship available
