Head of Patient Experience
Leeds | Office Based with Regular Travel £60,000 - £65,000 + Benefits
We are working with a high-growth, multi-site healthcare business that is entering an exciting period of expansion. As the business continues to grow, we're looking for an experienced Head of Patient Experience to take ownership of the customer journey and help establish consistently exceptional standards across the organisation.
This is a newly created role and an excellent opportunity for a customer experience expert who wants to have genuine influence within an ambitious, fast-growing business.
The Role
You'll be responsible for understanding what patients are experiencing, identifying where things aren't working and, crucially, understanding why.
Rather than simply managing complaints, you'll use customer feedback, ratings, data and insight to identify root causes and implement solutions that create lasting improvements.
You'll develop clear patient experience profiles and standards, improve customer ratings and satisfaction, and ensure the business consistently delivers an exceptional experience as it continues to scale.
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.
A key part of the role will also be mystery shopping, using the findings to identify opportunities and drive improvements across the customer journey.

- Own and develop the overall patient experience strategy.
- Analyse customer feedback, reviews, ratings and complaints to identify trends and root causes.
- Develop patient experience profiles and define what outstanding service looks like.

- Work closely with operational teams to resolve recurring issues and improve service delivery.
- Develop consistent customer experience standards across multiple locations.
- Use data and customer insight to influence business decisions.
- Build a culture of accountability and continuous improvement around patient experience.
