3 weeks ago

Pretoria, South Africa Medical Protection Society Full time

Job Introduction
The Member Protection and Support Division is at the forefront of protecting the careers, reputations and financial risk of our members worldwide. The purpose of this new role is to provide an array of trusted and valued medicolegal services locally to our members.

In 2019 we made the decision to move closer to our members and as such we are recruiting a team of highly skilled and knowledgeable medicolegal consultants in South Africa. This is an exciting opportunity for doctors with a demonstrable interest in medicolegal work to become involved in assisting our members as we move our South African medicolegal services to South Africa.

Main Responsibilities
The primary purpose of the role is to provide medicolegal case management services. Our MLC's advise members by telephone, in correspondence and face to face, about a wide variety of medicolegal and ethical issues affecting their professional practice. This can include, but is not limited to: advice, complaints, HPCSA matters, inquests, disciplinary matters, criminal cases related to clinical care and civil claims. Complex cases often include a combination of the fore mentioned.

Outside of case management, our MLCs use their knowledge and expertise to deliver lectures, partake in Medical Protection webinars and podcasts, contribute to publications and interact with relevant stakeholders.

The MLCs will work in a multidisciplinary team alongside other case managers for whom they will act as a point of escalation, offer support, mentoring and supervision.

A bioethics or healthcare law qualification and/or experience in mediation or a medico-legal setting would be advantageous but is not essential.

To be considered for the role you will need excellent interpersonal skills, an ability to manage conflict and challenging interactions as well as be able to demonstrate commercial awareness and operational understanding. Good communication skills are mandatory not only in a one to one setting but also to large audiences.

We are seeking a local applicant to Pretoria.

This is an employment equity role.

We protect and support the professional interests of more than 300,000 members around the world, in countries as diverse as the United Kingdom, South Africa and Hong Kong.
We strive to be much more than a last line of defence by being at our members’ side at every step, offering support, advice and world-class defence. Membership provides access to expert advice and support together with the right to request indemnity for complaints or claims arising from professional practice.
We continue to invest in our team to ensure that we are delivering the best possible service for members. This was recognised in 2016 when we were awarded an Investors in People Silver award.
