We are seeking an outstanding Director of Nursing/Deputy Chief Nursing Officer to join our senior leadership team on a six-month secondment. This is a rare opportunity for an inspirational senior nurse leader to influence nursing practice, quality and workforce innovation across our organisation and Integrated Care System.
Working closely with and deputising for the Chief Nursing & Allied Health Officer, you will provide visible professional leadership across nursing, driving high standards of care, patient safety and experience. You will lead key portfolios including clinical governance, safeguarding, infection prevention and control, workforce, and professional standards, and play a central role in our CQC relationship and system partnerships.
If you are a credible, values-led leader with the vision and presence to inspire teams and deliver impact at pace, we would love to hear from you.
