Working directly to the Chief Operating Officer, the postholder will align operational performance, clinical pathway redesign, patient flow, workforce productivity, digital and data-enabled improvement, and financial recovery into a single, coherent delivery programme.

The postholder will be expected to operate with the authority, pace and judgement of a senior operational director, working across clinical, nursing, operational, corporate and system partners to deliver tangible improvements for patients, staff and the Trust.

 The programme is focused on improving front-door access, ambulance handover, admission avoidance, non-admitted pathways, acute assessment, frailty, SDEC, discharge and ward flow, while delivering safe productivity and financial recovery benefits.

The programme operates in a complex environment where day-to-day operational pressures, transformation delivery, capital and estate constraints, digital dependencies, workforce capacity and system-wide discharge challenges all intersect. The postholder will provide senior leadership to align these workstreams, strengthen accountability, resolve barriers and ensure that agreed improvement priorities translate into sustained operational and patient benefits.

The secondment provides focused capacity to accelerate delivery during a critical phase of the UEC programme, ensuring visible leadership, clear decision routes, disciplined benefits tracking and credible assurance to Executive and Board-level forums.
