Serving a population of around 1.2 million people and employing more than 17,000 colleagues across three main acute hospital sites and a range of community and specialist services, the Trust plays a central role in improving health outcomes and reducing inequalities across mid and south Essex. Like many large NHS providers, the Trust operates in a demanding national and local context, with sustained operational pressure and rising expectations. At the same time, there is a clear ambition to move beyond recovery and towards renewal: delivering consistently high-quality, equitable and compassionate care; strengthening leadership and accountability at every level; and creating an environment in which staff feel supported, valued and able to do their best work. Main duties of the job We are now seeking an exceptional Chief Executive to lead the Trust through this next phase. This is a complex and highly visible leadership role, operating at scale. It requires calm judgement, resilience and the ability to maintain grip on day-to-day performance, alongside the capacity to set a clear direction and build confidence in the future. For the right leader, it offers a rare opportunity to make a meaningful and lasting difference to services, culture and outcomes for a large and diverse population. The Trust has a ten year strategy, developed with staff and partners, which places patients first, prioritises equity of access, strengthens local and integrated services, and invests in people, learning and improvement.
