About Us

NHS Greater Huddersfield CCG and NHS North Kirklees CCG are currently separate statutory organisations although do work closely and have in recent years implemented shared management arrangements. The practice members of each CCG have recently voted to progress a formal merger of the CCGs and it is intended the merger will take effect from 1 April 2021, subject to final approval by the CCG regulator, NHS England/Improvement. For candidates this means that should you be successfully employed by either Greater Huddersfield CCG or North Kirklees CCG, and be in employment before 1 April 2021, your employment may transfer to the nascent NHS Kirklees CCG. Any employment starting on or after 1 April 2021 may commence directly with the nascent NHS Kirklees CCG. NHS North Kirklees CCG is responsible for planning and buying healthcare services. Our vision is to enable local people to live longer, healthier and happier lives. Join us and help transform health services for all our patients. We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from all sections of society regardless of disability, age, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, race, religion or belief. Important Information Agenda for Change Roles - Salaries on Commencement of Employment A successful candidate coming from a non-NHS Employer will commence employment on the bottom point of the pay band.
