Are you ready to take on a senior leadership role with serious impact? Want to be right at the heart of one of the NHS's most vital transformations? We've got just the opportunity for you.

You'll be at the helm of our PMO , leading a brilliant team and managing a complex portfolio of high-impact projects and programmes. We're talking about the whole lifecycle - from ideas and planning through to delivery and measurable results. You won't just be ticking boxes - you'll be helping to reimagine how we work, spend, and care .



? Heading up the PMO - think strategy, leadership, and delivery.

? Driving key programmes and projects across the organisation.

? Supporting divisions to build and execute robust waste reduction plans.

? Delivering results that boost both financial health and patient care.

? Ensuring solid governance, rock-steady assurance, and impactful outcomes.



This isn't just about cutting costs - it's about smart change , sustainable improvement , and making sure every pound we spend delivers for our patients.



So, if you're a seasoned programme leader with a passion for improvement, transformation, and doing things differently (for the better), we want to hear from you.



Make your mark. Lead real change. Join the journey.
