The Patient First (PF) Team Leader will provide operational management and leadership to the Patient First Improvement Practitioners, to deliver the Patient First Improvement System (PFIS) and develop the Trusts improvement capability and maturity over time.

It is really important to us to create a safe, trusting, and inspiring team environment and the PF Team Leader will support this through compassionate and collaborative leadership. Keeping the team informed of priorities and objectives and understanding our part in the bigger picture (Trust vision, strategy and priorities) will be essential in maintaining focus and direction.

The role involves working with stakeholders throughout the Trust, so building and nurturing internal relationships and networks is key to success in the role. Working closely with colleagues across the Trust, the Team Leader will facilitate collaborative working and co-design, information sharing and decision making in relation to improvement activity, and support the development of a continuous improvement culture.

In line with the Trust and team priorities, you will be responsible for supervising, managing, developing and motivating team members on a daily basis to support delivery of improvement projects and activities across the Trust (as outlined through Patient First Programme). This will include supporting the team to deliver coaching and develop capability across all divisions via driver meetings, maturity meetings, Service Development Reviews (SDRs) and Improvement Huddles, with a consistent and system approach to continuous improvement.
