Overview

The New Hospital Programme is more than building hospitals, it’s a once in a generation opportunity to shape the future of healthcare in England. We’re delivering over 40 new hospitals that will be modern, sustainable and built around the needs of patients and staff. We’re looking for people who care about purpose, who thrive in complex environments and who want to help deliver change at scale for future generations.

You will support the leadership and delivery of the Integration workstream, helping drive co-ordination across complex programme activities to support delivery of the New Hospital Programme.

Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage complex programme integration activity to support delivery of programme objectives.
  • Work closely with senior leadership to support the development and delivery of the programme’s integrated plan.
  • Provide leadership and oversight to ensure alignment across programme workstreams and delivery partners.
  • Support engagement with internal and external stakeholders to ensure coordinated delivery across multiple disciplines.
  • The post holder will support and deputise for the Integration Director where required.

Requirements / Experience

The role requires significant experience operating within large-scale and complex programmes, ideally within infrastructure, capital programmes, government or similarly complex environments. Experience within healthcare systems would be beneficial but is not essential.

Top-level purpose and objectives

  • Enabling local systems and providers to improve the health of their people and patients and reduce health inequalities.
  • Making the NHS a great place to work, where our people can make a difference and achieve their potential.
