Shape the future of mental health services across North London

Formed in November 2024 following the merger of Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust and Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust, we serve a diverse population of 1.8 million people across five London boroughs with an annual turnover of over £670 million and more than 6,000 colleagues.
We're now seeking an exceptional Director of Planned Care to join our Executive leadership team and help shape the next chapter of our organisation.
The opportunity
Reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer, you will lead our Planned Care Group, providing strategic and operational leadership across community mental health services, talking therapies, outreach and other planned care pathways.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
- Working in partnership with senior clinical leaders, you will be accountable for operational performance, quality, finance, workforce, transformation and governance, ensuring our services continue to improve outcomes whilst delivering exceptional care closer to home.
This is a role with significant influence across the organisation and wider North Central London system, offering the opportunity to shape services, develop partnerships and improve the lives of the communities we serve.
Why North London Foundation Trust?
This is far more than an operational leadership role.
- You'll be joining an ambitious Executive Team committed to delivering our vision of Better Mental Health. Better Lives. Better Communities.
- You'll help shape services across one of the most diverse populations in the country whilst leading transformation, innovation and continuous improvement at scale.
