✨Join Us at The Centre for ADHD Research and Excellence: Shaping the Future of Accessible Healthcare✨
At Care ADHD, we’re improving access to high-quality ADHD assessment and treatment by making private care more affordable and easier to navigate. We’re client-centred and outcomes-focused, with a strong emphasis on operational excellence: clear ways of working, consistent use of systems, and teams who know what “good” looks like.
We’re scaling quickly over the next five years and we’re building the foundations to do that responsibly: strong operational standards, great enablement, and a culture of learning that helps people do their best work every day. We learn quickly and iterate – while keeping changes controlled, documented, and safe.
🚀 The Role: Implementation and Change Specialist
We’re hiring a Implementation and Change Specialist (mid-level) to support the implementation and deliver end to end operational and system enabled change across CARE ADHD. You’ll work closely with our Senior Operational Improvement Manager and Implementation Manager to:
- Identify friction in how work gets done
- Structure improvement work
- Support roll-outs of new operational changes and releases
- Coordinate delivery across teams
- Support testing, go‑live, adoption, and benefits tracking
- Track whether changes are landing.
This is a hands-on delivery role. You will run implementation activity, manage dependencies and ensure operational and digital changes land successfully. You won’t own the process library or document control — you’ll partner with our Process Standards & Documentation Specialist to ensure improvements are reflected in SOPs and standards, and embedded sustainably.
🔎 What you’ll do
🧭 Identify and understand operational friction
- Support discovery: shadowing, interviews, small workshops, and quick “as-is” mapping to pinpoint bottlenecks, rework, and handover issues.
- Use data and frontline feedback to separate symptoms from root causes.
🛠️ Deliver digital-first operational improvements
- Shape implementation scopes, success measures, and delivery plans.
- Collaborate on projects across Operations, Product, Implementation, and Enablement.
- Support requirements capture and translation into system or workflow changes.
- Support readiness, testing support, go‑live activity, and post‑implementation follow‑up.
📈 Track operational performance and adoption
- Help define and track key operational measures (e.g., turnaround time, queue ageing, rework rates, handover delays, accuracy).
- Produce simple weekly updates that make progress, risks, and next actions visible.
- Monitor adoption and flag where teams need extra support (in partnership with Training & Enablement).
🔁 Close the loop and prevent repeat issues
- Use QA/audit themes, operational incidents, and recurring escalations to prioritise fixes.
- Ensure learnings translate into changed ways of working (and don’t get lost after go-live).
🤝 Work cleanly with standards and enablement
- Capture workflow decisions and changes clearly, and hand over to the Process Standards & Documentation Specialist for controlled publication/versioning.
- Partner with Training & Enablement to ensure teams are supported through changes.
👀 What we’re looking for
Essential
- Experience implementing operational or digital change with clear involvement across the full delivery life cycle (plan > implement > embed) (mid-level).
- Comfortable owning delivery structure: plans, actions, dependencies, and follow‑through informed by hands‑on project management experience.
- Experience working directly with operational teams to understand real‑world workflows.
- Comfortable speaking with stakeholders, running small workshops, and capturing requirements clearly.
- Analytical mindset: you can work with data (even if messy) to understand what’s happening and measure change.
- Strong written communication and organisation skills.
- Comfortable working in a multi-role environment where operational documentation control sits with a dedicated standards specialist.
Preferred
- Experience leading on multiple implementation projects and digital/system changes.
- Experience in healthcare (bonus point if it’s in mental health) or another quality-sensitive environment (regulated is a bonus, not a must).
- Familiarity with continuous improvement tools and approaches (Lean basics, root cause analysis, standard work).
- Comfort with tools such as Miro/Lucidchart/Visio, Notion/Confluence/SharePoint, Jira/Asana, and basic reporting in Excel/Sheets (and ideally a BI tool).
🤩 Desirable qualities
- Curious, pragmatic, and improvement-minded – you care about making things work better for teams and clients.
- You enjoy getting into the detail, but can also zoom out and see the bigger picture.
- You’re reliable and proactive: you follow through, close loops, and keep things moving.
- You balance pace with quality, and you’re comfortable working in a fast-moving environment.
🌟 What We Value
Care is at the heart of who we are – in how we support clients, and in how we treat each other as colleagues. Skills and experience matter, but it’s our mindset and behaviours that shape the culture we’ve built and protect it as we scale.
We value:
-
Kindness – treating colleagues, partners, and clients with respect and care.
-
Transparency – being open and honest, building trust at every level.
-
Reflection – pausing to learn, adapt, and grow together.
-
Growth mindset – embracing feedback and challenge as opportunities.
-
Accountability – owning outcomes and focusing on solutions, not blame.
-
Collaboration – sharing ideas, supporting one another, and celebrating collective success.
🏆 What Success Looks Like

- You’ve built strong relationships with core teams and can confidently map and document priority workflows.
