Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust

Chief Executive

Attractive salary

Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust provides integrated healthcare services, including mental health, intellectual disability and physical health services. Our 9,000 dedicated colleagues provide services in a variety of settings, from the community through to acute wards, as well as in high secure settings. With an annual budget of £540 million pounds, our local, regional, and national remit includes provision of a range of specialist services into wider regions, and we manage Rampton Hospital, one of only three high secure hospitals in England.

We are proud of the progress we have made in our improvement journey, and we have brought together our people, service users, partners, carers and the public to design our new Trust Strategy, ‘Making a Difference 2022-2027’. This sets out ambitious goals to ensure we deliver exceptional care for our patients, building on our commitment to the wellbeing of our staff and the populations that we serve. We are a key player in the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire ICS and an active partner and leader in local and regional Provider Collaboratives working with statutory and non-statutory partners to integrate health and care services. 

Our Chief Executive, Dr John Brewin is retiring this year after 3½ successful years in the role.  At this exciting time of transformational change for health and care services, we are seeking an inspirational and values-led Chief Executive who is committed to tackling inequalities in healthcare outcomes, experience and access.  Previous NHS experience is not essential, though we are seeking an experienced leader operating at Chief Executive level. You will be a leader who thrives in a complex multistakeholder system environment and in leading the high quality delivery of a diverse and complex range of services.  Quickly building credibility with our Board, our staff, our Governors, our Partners and the people who we serve, you will lead an experienced Executive team. Most importantly you will be a champion for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, and live and role-model our values of Trust, Honesty, Respect, Compassion and Teamwork.

This is an exceptional opportunity to define your career and lead our Trust in ‘Making a Difference’.  If you share our vision and values and want to know more, then we would love to hear from you.
