Job Summary

Have you ever wondered how hospitals turn patient care into trusted data that supports funding, planning and safer services? If you enjoy problemsolving, attention to detail and working with complex information, a career in clinical coding could be for you.

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is looking for a Clinical Coding Specialist to join our experienced and supportive Clinical Coding team. This role is ideal for people who may not yet fully know the profession but are interested in developing specialist expertise in a vital behindthescenes NHS role.

What is clinical coding?

Clinical coders translate information from patient recordssuch as diagnoses, treatments and proceduresinto nationally recognised codes. These codes are essential: they support patient safety, clinical research, service improvement and ensure the Trust is accurately funded for the care it provides.

As a Clinical Coding Specialist, you will focus on more complex and specialist patient cases, working closely with clinicians, auditors and fellow coders to ensure data is accurate, consistent and high quality. You’ll become a local expert, supporting colleagues with queries, mentoring newer coders and helping to improve standards across the service.

You’ll also:

Analyse detailed clinical records and apply national coding rules
Work with clinicians to clarify and resolve complex cases
Lead and contribute to audits and quality improvement projects
Share knowledge and help develop good practice within your team

This post is offered under Annex 21, which means it’s designed as a training and development opportunity. If you’re not yet fully qualified, we’ll support you to achieve the National Clinical Coding Qualification (NCCQ), with structured milestones and increasing pay as you progress. For more information, please follow the below to link to watch a short introduction to Clinical Coding:

Introduction to Clinical Coding in the NHS 2024 update

Pay and progression

Under Annex 21, you’ll start at a percentage of the Band 5 salary, increasing as you meet training milestones:

Entry level: 65%
After Year 1 audit: 70%
After Year 2 audit: 75%
On gaining NCCQ: Band 5 salary

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is looking for a Clinical Coding Specialist to join our experienced and supportive Clinical Coding team. This role is ideal for people who may not yet fully know the profession but are interested in developing specialist expertise in a vital behindthescenes NHS role.

Why you should join our Team

The Clinical Coding Department is a large and diverse team with a strong work ethic and high standards. The team work mainly from home barring a few exceptions by choice. This is because of our Trust EPR and scanning service enables our team to code digitally.

We ask that the teams attend the LTHT site a minimum of two times per year or for business needs such as certain training, equipment failure and operational requirements. This will ensure that staff can build and maintain relationships with other team members.

As a department we rotate the clinical coders assigned job plans every six months to ensure our clinical coders maintain their skill mix.

The department has a training and audit function with 3 auditors, a trainer and an assistant trainer. This is to ensure the continued improvements in the depth and quality of our clinical coding as well as support the trainees undertaking our annex 21 training plan for the ACC qualification.

What we’re looking for

You don’t need to know everything already. We’re looking for people who:

Enjoy working with complex information and have strong attention to detail
Can concentrate for sustained periods and work accurately to deadlines
Communicate clearly and confidently with a range of professionals
Are motivated to learn, develop specialist skills and support others

Experience in clinical coding, healthcare administration, audit, analysis or medical terminology is helpfulbut enthusiasm, curiosity and commitment are just as important.

Join our Microsoft Teams Clinical Coding Recruitment Event on Thursday 11th June at 4:00pm to learn more about the role and meet members of the team. To book your place, please email [email protected] with Clinical Coding Recruitment Event in the subject line by Friday 5th June 2026.

We want to understand what you can bring to LTHT and your reasons for applying, not a version of these created by AI. AI is a tool, it is not a replacement for your thoughts, experience and ideas.
