Sunderland GP Alliance

Our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant

As a forces friendly employer we value the wide range of transferrable skills and experiences that family members of current serving UK personnel, reservists and veterans can bring to our organisation.  We appreciate the resilience, adaptability and determination these people demonstrate and can offer the development opportunities and flexible ways of working to support them in their careers.  We also use the Career Transition Partnership jobsite to support the employment of veterans and service leavers into our available roles. 

About us

Formed in 2015, Sunderland GP Alliance is a not for profit organisation owned by the city’s GPs and representing over 250,000 patients.  We exist to provide excellence for our patients and we do this through the amazing people who work here.  We help multi-disciplinary teams work collaboratively for the benefit of patients and employees as part of the ambitious future vision of healthcare in Sunderland.  Many of the developments that the Alliance can facilitate relate to clinical services that are better provided at scale than by individual practices.   The strength of Sunderland GP Alliance is how our people work together as we have a common goal of delivering excellence in primary care. 

We pride ourselves in being a supportive and motivating environment for our employees.  We believe getting the right work-life balance together with personal development opportunities, creates a happy, healthy and creative team.  

We offer great benefits which include: 

• Flexible working
• 33 days annual leave (+ 8 bank holidays)
• NHS pension including life assurance
• Lease car scheme
• Cycle to work scheme
• Tech scheme
• Wellbeing support.  

We welcome people to come and join us!
