About the role

Are you an experienced UK General Practitioner with a background in prison or other secure healthcare settings, looking to combine handson clinical work with genuine clinical leadership in a wellsupported, manageable custodial environment?

Manx Care is seeking a Prison General Practitioner Lead to deliver and lead highquality primary care medical services within the Isle of Man Prison. This is a senior clinical role, fundamentally grounded in direct patient care, with clear responsibility for medical leadership, governance, and service development.

The Isle of Man Prison is small by UK standards, with a population of approximately 150 patients. As the only fulltime GP on site, you will work closely with a skilled prison healthcare nursing team and a dedicated Healthcare Administrative Officer, supported by a small group of salaried portfolio GPs who provide sessional cover, including during annual leave.

This is a role for a clinician who understands the realities of custodial healthcare and values continuity, autonomy, and professional judgementwithout the scale, pressure, or fragmentation common in larger UK establishments.

You will deliver comprehensive primary care to a complex and diverse patient group, many of whom present with overlapping physical health, mental health, substance misuse, and social needs.

By joining Manx Care on the Isle of Man youll be stepping away from NHS pressures and demands, as the Islands healthcare system is similar but separate to the UK NHS. We provide lots of opportunities for professional learning and CPD, this includes use of our well-resourced education and training centre.

At many of our locations youll have access to free on-site car parking. People who relocate here can also get a refund on their National Insurance contributions for the first year of living here. In addition, we offer generous relocation packages for most of our roles!

On the Isle of Man you can benefit from great lifestyle opportunities, a safe environment and great schools. Manx residents benefit from lower tax rates compared to most countries in the EU.
