NHS Transforming People Services (TPS) Programme
The NHS Transforming People Services (TPS) programme sits at the heart of delivering the NHS 10 Year Health Plan — creating a workforce that is empowered, flexible and digitally enabled to meet the evolving needs of patients and communities.
This is more than a transformation role, it is an opportunity to redefine how people services are delivered across the NHS and directly influence the experience of one of the largest workforces in the world.
Role Overview
The Senior OD Transformation Lead will play a key leadership role in delivering the Organisational Development (OD) transformation agenda. The postholder will lead the regional implementation of future People services and transformation initiatives, ensuring national designs are successfully adopted and embedded across the NHS.
Working closely with national, regional and local stakeholders, the role will be responsible for supporting organisations to build capability, strengthen leadership, enhance culture and deliver sustainable workforce transformation across organisational boundaries. The postholder will act as a critical link between national programme design and local delivery, ensuring regions are equipped, engaged and supported to realise the benefits of transformation and create high-performing, inclusive organisations.
