City Health Care Partnership CIC (CHCP CIC) is an independent, co-owned Community Interest Company providing high quality local health and care services at several sites across Hull and East Yorkshire.

Commissioned by the NHS and local authorities, we are a co-owned, socially responsible business. Our profits are re-invested into our services, our staff, and the communities we work in. We employ over 2,000 people and have over 1.7m patient contacts each year across move than 50 different services.

At CHCP, we’re passionate about people and we know that you are too, that’s why we’re here isn’t it? We recognise that high quality care is delivered by high quality professionals who are appreciated, respected, and supported, which is why we want to give all our colleagues the chance to shine.

Our vision is to lead and inspire through excellence, compassion, and expertise in all that we do, and we are looking for exceptional people to work with us to provide the highest possible care to the people who use our services.

A positive work/life balance benefits both employees through improved health and wellbeing, and employers because staff are more productive and satisfied at work. Flexible working is part of a wider commitment to improve the quality of working life and we recognise that it has a positive impact on the retention of our colleagues. 

We therefore support and encourage open conversations about flexible working in order to ensure that our colleagues can work in a manner that best suits their personal needs and preferences.

Local flexible working arrangements are developed in partnership between line manager and employee in order to ensure equality of access to flexible working, as far as practicable, regardless of role, shift pattern, team or pay. If you would like to discuss then please make contact with the recruiting manager.
