Head of Multidisciplinary Team Coordination

Head of Multidisciplinary Team Coordination

Position: Head of Multidisciplinary Team Coordination
Location: National role, with regular travel across England
Contract type: Full time, 40 hours per week

Are you a senior registered healthcare professional who wants to transform how complex care is delivered?

This is a rare opportunity to design and lead a national multidisciplinary model that will directly improve outcomes for adults living with complex and high acuity needs.

We’re looking for an exceptional leader to establish and lead our multidisciplinary team (MDT) coordination function across Exemplar Health Care. 

This is not a traditional MDT coordination role. It’s a senior, system-level position focused on building a model that ensures clinical input is timely, targeted, and consistently translated into better outcomes.

You’ll operate with significant autonomy and influence. You’ll shape how deterioration is identified, how care is escalated, and how multidisciplinary decision-making improves lives at scale.

About Exemplar Health Care

Exemplar Health Care is one of the country’s leading nursing care providers for adults living with complex needs.

We have over 60 care homes across England, supporting adults living with complex mental health needs, dementia, neuro-disabilities, and physical disabilities.

Our focus is on delivering high quality, person-centred care in specialist settings, supported by strong clinical leadership and governance.

About the role

As Head of Multidisciplinary Team Coordination, you’ll design and lead a national model that ensures the right clinical decisions happen at the right time for people with complex, multi-morbid conditions.

You’ll build the structures, pathways, and clinical approach that underpin effective multidisciplinary working - creating clarity around referral, triage, escalation, and follow-up, and ensuring this translates into measurable improvements in outcomes.

Your work will have a direct and meaningful impact, including:

• reducing avoidable hospital admissions

• improving early identification of deterioration

• strengthening anticipatory and end of life care planning

• optimising health, stability, and quality of life. 

No two days will be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

• designing and implementing a consistent MDT coordination model across regions

• establishing clear referral, triage, and escalation pathways

• coordinating MDT input for individuals with the highest clinical risk and complexity

• ensuring MDT activity is outcome focused, with clear decisions and accountability

• embedding proactive approaches to deterioration management across physical, mental, and behavioural health

• reducing unplanned hospital use through early intervention and coordinated care

• leading a consistent and high-quality approach to advance and end of life care planning

• providing expert clinical advice to senior operational and regional leaders

• developing performance frameworks and using data to drive prioritisation and improvement.

About you

Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success, and teamwork.

You’ll also be:

• a highly credible registered clinician (ideally a GP, or an advanced practitioner such as a paramedic, nurse, or allied health professional)

• an experienced prescriber (or operating at an equivalent level of clinical decision-making)

• confident managing complex multi-morbidity, particularly in neuro-degenerative disease, dementia, complex mental health, and end of life care

• experienced in designing or coordinating care pathways across multiple services

• comfortable operating at senior level with autonomy and influence

• analytically strong, able to translate clinical data and insight into clear, prioritised action

• calm, confident, and authoritative in complex and high-pressure situations

• motivated by improving outcomes and transforming how care is delivered at scale. 

Experience of developing or working within proactive care models, such as virtual wards or virtual clinics, would be advantageous.
