Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust

Chief Operating Officer

£140,000 - £152,000

Cornwall

Brilliant Care. Brilliant People. Brilliant Improvement.

At Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust (RCHT), our vision is Aspiring to Provide Brilliant Care to One + All, and these three key strategic goals are our plan for doing this.

As the main provider of acute and specialist care services for the people of Cornwall, we recognise the importance of ensuring that our operations run as smoothly and effectively as possible. Our Chief Operating Officer role is crucial in ensuring that we can deliver Brilliant Care to all of our local communities.

We have got an exciting and challenging agenda ahead of us, one that is focused on delivering exceptional services to a diverse and dispersed population. We know that the ambitions we have for the Trust can only be realised if we work with our partners across the region to shape and develop healthcare services for the future of our communities.

We want to change, transform, and modernise, recognising that with the development of ICSs our staff will have to work in new and different ways, and it will be vital to transform our services to help make our strategic goals a success. We want to focus our efforts on delivering the right services in the right locations, and our Chief Operating Officer will be a key part of that journey.

We are looking for someone who matches our ambition to provide Brilliant Care, but equally who is passionate about driving Brilliant Improvement. We want someone who has compassion at the heart of everything they do, and who wants to use that to help shape and grow our services. The role offers the chance to not just shape this within the Trust, but to work and engage across the entire local health and care system, and we are looking for someone who will want to be a role model for our values every single day.

We aspire to be one of the country’s finest places to live and work. The last year has seen many people reflect on their priorities, this is an opportunity to change your lifestyle - choose a vibrant career with a progressive and innovative role in idyllic Cornwall, rich in culture, history and heritage. As one of the most rural counties in England, Cornwall has countryside a plenty and you can travel from some of our biggest towns to a remote village within minutes, from the surfing beaches of North Cornwall coast to the small fishing villages to the south. With hundreds of beaches on both the north and south coasts, there are plenty of places to relax with a book, take a dip in the sea or take your four-legged friend for a walk.

The 430,000 people who live across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly deserve Brilliant Care, and we hope that you can see your values reflected in our own. If you feel this is you, then please contact Melanie Shearer on the number below, as we want to talk to you. We hope you see this as the opportunity we do, to shape and develop modern and transformative services to our communities, to truly enable us to deliver Brilliant Care to One + All.
