MLA Gynecology - Clinic and Surgery

Meliva Gyn Läkarvillan is currently recruiting an MLA (Medical Director/Head of Medical Services) within gynecology, where both clinic consultations and surgical procedures are part of the care offerings.

Meliva Gyn Läkarvillan is located in the St. Göran area on Kungsholmen in Stockholm. After the summer, we will move to completely newly renovated and well-adapted premises just a stone's throw from our current location. Our new premises will be optimized for efficient workflows with both patients and employees in focus.

Within Meliva, quality is paramount, and the MLA function is central to our operations. As an MLA with us, you will be part of the management group and seen as a natural right-hand person to the operations manager and vice versa. As an MLA, you will contribute to modern, learning, and cohesive specialist care where development and quality are at the center, while also having the opportunity to work clinically alongside your MLA responsibilities.

The Role

As an MLA within Meliva, you will be part of a broader context than just the local level, by participating in Meliva's Medical Council. Here, all of the company's MLAs meet twice a year to exchange experiences. We also have specialized extended medical councils within gynecology, where MLAs from our gynecological units meet to discuss challenges and new findings. Meliva also has a central quality function and a Chief Medical Officer who provide support and advice as needed. Collaboration and experience sharing with other operations in Sweden and other countries where Meliva operates are encouraged.

As an MLA within Meliva, you have significant responsibility, but you are never alone.

Responsibilities include:

• Supporting the operations manager in medical matters and patient safety.
• Holding monthly doctor meetings focused on development.
• Contributing to the development of the clinic's clinical work and spreading best practices.
• Building relationships with Meliva's other care units within specialist care and primary care.
• Monitoring medical quality (deviations, complaints, LÖF, IVO) and coordinating patient safety work.
• Participating in external networks to monitor and implement new care forms and working methods within gynecological care.

Who are you?

You are a confident and experienced specialist doctor in gynecology who combines clinical competence with a development mindset. You are an advisor, a standard-setter, and a culture carrier all in one – and you thrive in a role where quality, patient safety, and development are central.

Personal qualities:

• Analytical and structured, with the ability to interpret medical quality data and translate it into actions.
• Relationship-oriented and communicative, accustomed to creating security in medical matters and leading professional forums.
• Development-oriented and proactive, with the ability to inspire and drive change.
• Pedagogical and inclusive, with a good ability to coach and contribute to learning.
• Understanding of the interplay between medical quality, economics, staffing, and patient safety.

Competence profile:

• Specialist in Gynecology/Obstetrics with at least three years of experience.
• Experience in medical leadership (MLA, operations management, or patient safety/quality work).
• Good ability to work in a data-driven manner, analyze quality results, and lead development initiatives.
• Strong communication skills in speech and writing, fluent Swedish.

What distinguishes you in the role:

• You ensure that medical perspectives carry the right weight in management discussions and strategic decisions.
• You create structure, follow-up, and engagement in medical quality work.
• You think modern and forward-looking, with a stable anchoring in evidence and patient safety.
• You contribute to strengthening Meliva's professional pride and culture by being present and engaged.
