Chief People Officer

4 weeks ago


Torquay Devon, United Kingdom Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Our incredible Chief People Officer is now leaving us, and we're now looking for someone who can build on her foundation to maintain our focus on creating a compassionate, inclusive culture that delivers our People Promise to everyone who works with us and supports us to provide the best quality, safest care we can to our communities, whilst keeping an eye on growing the workforce of the future and delivering the NHS's Long Term Workforce Plan.

This is a critical role, reporting to our Chief Executive as a voting member of our board. You will have the experience we need to develop, implement and deliver our people and workforce strategy. With experience of working at or close to board level, you will understand the importance of forging effective partnerships with our people and system partners to drive the change we need.

Main duties of the job

We can't deliver the change we need without our people, and as our Chief People Officer you will be leading the work to continue building an inclusive culture at work where everyone feels safe, healthy and supported: this not only leads to better patient care but will underpin our long term workforce strategy to attract, recruit, retain and develop our workforce to deliver better care for the people of Torbay and South Devon.

We believe we can only improve what we do by including, listening and acting upon what our people tell us to deliver the changes we - and our patients - need. As the executive lead for Freedom to Speak Up, you will be an advocate for giving our people a safe space and voice and working with them to embed change in our organisation.

Job responsibilities

Can you help us to take our commitment to our people to the next level and become a beacon for best practice? We're looking for that special someone who can help us shape a high performing, inclusive and empowering culture - could it be you?

This is a full-time role, with flexibility around base/location blended with travel and remote working.
