Chair

1 month ago


Gloucester, United Kingdom Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Following a highly successful tenure, our current Chair, Ingrid Barker, will end her term in April 2024. As a result, there is an opportunity arising for someone who shares our passion for high quality mental health, learning disabilities and community health services, along with our vision and values, to lead us into the next phase of our evolution.

We are intent on delivering the ambitious aspirations set out in our five-year strategy, ‘Better Care Together - With You, For You’. In achieving our mission of ‘Enabling People to Live the Best Lives They Can’, we are committed to delivering excellent, high quality services for the people of Gloucestershire.

Building on our positive CQC inspection in 2022 which rated the Trust as ‘Good’ we want to further transform our services by co-producing what we do with the people and communities we serve, building on their strengths and using their insights to drive change. We have a clear focus on tackling inequalities and promoting inclusion. Forward thinking and ambitious, we want to use quality improvement methodology and the best technology to provide excellent quality services, enhancing access and choice. We take our position as an anchor institution seriously, with clear ambitions to be sustainable and to contribute to the wellbeing of our local economy.

We are seeking an individual who shares these ambitions and is able to lead and develop a high performing Board, capable of delivering the Trust’s strategic objectives. The Chair will also ensure the voice of the Council of Governors is strongly reflected in the work of the Board.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.

Our Staff Survey results showed people at our Trust feel they are engaged, part of a team and work for a compassionate and inclusive organisation.

Our overall scores were better than average in eight of nine themes and level in one - the best overall results for a community, mental health and learning disabilities Trust in the south west and first equal amongst all sector NHS providers within the region too.

Gloucestershire Health and Care is committed to embedding and providing personalised care through all of its services as part of our high-quality care strategy. The purpose of personalised care is to empower people to lead the lives they want to live. Personalised care starts with a conversation with people about what matters to them. It builds on what people can do, as well as addressing their health needs. Including new ways of working and delivering care, emphasising that we need to make effective use of the full range of our people’s skills and experience to deliver the best possible patient care. So we want to know What Matters to You and that you will share our values and join us on this very important journey.

The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
