Local Care Organisations (LCOs) Careers

At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), our Local Care Organisations (LCOs) are at the heart of community health and wellbeing.

Working in partnership with local authorities and community partners, our LCO teams deliver integrated health and adult social care services across Manchester and Trafford – making a real difference, every day, in the places people call home. 

The LCOs are at the forefront of national work to provide more care in the community. That includes urgent care services like Hospital at Home, Community Crisis Response and Community IV care – delivering acute hospital like care in people’s homes. 

Whether you’re a nurse, allied health professional, social worker, support worker, or part of our vital administration and technical teams, you’ll find a rewarding career in our LCOs. Our roles span: 

In our LCOs, you’ll be part of a team that brings care closer to people – supporting independence, preventing hospital admissions, and helping individuals live healthier, happier lives. You’ll work collaboratively with colleagues across health and social care, building relationships that make a real impact in our diverse communities. 

We’re committed to your development and wellbeing. With flexible working, ongoing training, and a culture that values every voice, you’ll have the support you need to thrive. Our LCOs are places where you can build lasting relationships, develop new skills, and see the difference you make – every single day. 

If you’re passionate about community care and want to be part of a team that’s all here for Manchester, Trafford, and each other, we’d love to welcome you. Explore our latest LCO opportunities and start your journey with us.
