About the employer

City Health Care Partnership CIC is a not-for-profit social enterprise providing NHS and community health services across Hull, East Yorkshire and surrounding areas. Its services typically span primary care, community nursing, therapy, mental health, specialist support, sexual health and health improvement. As a Community Interest Company, it reinvests income into patient care, service development and local communities rather than distributing profits to shareholders. The organisation works closely with the NHS, local authorities and other partners to provide accessible, integrated care. Digital and technology teams help support safe clinical practice, efficient operations and better patient access through reliable systems and innovative solutions. The organisation offers a public-service environment where developers can contribute directly to healthcare improvement while working with multidisciplinary teams and supporting the ongoing digital transformation of community services.
