Chief Executive Officer
University Hospitals of Liverpool Group
University Hospitals of Liverpool Group is one of the largest provider groups in the NHS, bringing together three statutory organisations that collectively serve Liverpool and the surrounding region.
With more than 19,000 colleagues and an annual income of around £1.8 billion, the Group provides a broad range of services, from community based care through to highly specialised and nationally recognised clinical provision. It also plays an important role in research, education and innovation through its longstanding relationships with universities and partners across the city region.
The Group has reached an important stage in its development and, whilst much has been achieved, the Board recognises that there remains a great deal still to do. The successful candidate will need to bring people together behind a clear sense of direction, ensure that the benefits of working as a Group are realised in practice and maintain a clear focus on the quality of care provided to patients.
We are now seeking an outstanding Group Chief Executive to lead that next stage of our development.
- You will provide leadership across the Group and work closely with the Chair, Boards, executive teams, staff and partners to deliver the next stage of its development.
- You will lead the Group through an increasingly challenging operating environment, ensuring that quality of care, operational performance and financial stewardship remain at the heart of decision making.
- You will represent the Group within the wider health and care system, building effective relationships with NHS partners, local authorities, universities and other stakeholders across the region.
- You will lead the advancement of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion across the Group, embedding inclusive leadership and tackling inequity in outcomes and experience.
- Liverpool has an outstanding reputation for research, education and innovation and you will work with our university partners and clinical leaders to ensure those strengths continue to grow and translate into better care, improved outcomes and greater opportunities for patients and staff.
