** This role will start on or after 1st April 2024**

As a Divisional Head of Finance (DHOF) at United Lincolnshire Hospitals, you will enjoy an exciting and rewarding role. Working closely with the relevant Divisional Managing Director, you can expect to play a vital role in the leadership of one of our Operational Divisions, where annual revenue expenditure budgets are £130m-£185m. You will have regular exposure to the wider senior leadership team of the Trust, including Executive Directors, through divisional performance review meetings.

The Trust Board has signed off Year 4 of our Integrated Improvement Plan (IIP) “Outstanding Care, Personally Delivered”. This important and exciting document celebrates our successes over the last year and looks at what we want to achieve over the next year. It is great to work in a Trust with such a clear plan about what we hope to achieve, and the projects to get there offer you the chance to further develop your experience and knowledge as you build your career.

This role will give you opportunities to work closely with divisional & operational teams.

The DHOF will be responsible for leading a divisional finance team to provide a professional and comprehensive Financial Management service to a division and supporting and leading on the continuous improvement of wider departmental policies and processes. These include the development of the divisional annual and long-term plans and leading on the detailed budget-setting process identifying financial risks and opportunities and overseeing the production of outturn forecasts. You will also support the division to identify/develop/implement opportunities to improve productivity and efficiency and support the production of high quality and robust business cases enabling improvement across the division.

On a monthly basis you will ensure the accurate and timely production of monthly finance and performance management information for the divisional management and senior finance teams.

You will be responsible for directing, motivating, and managing your team and will play a key role in developing their skills and those of the wider finance team.

ABOUT OUR FINANCIAL MANGEMENT TEAM

As a team, we recognise the importance of continuous improvement, and are committed to reviewing and renewing our service offer to the Trust; this is reflected in our desire to ‘Make our best difference’ to the clinical/non-clinical services we support and keep the patient at the centre of everything we do.

Our staff have opportunities to gain experience and develop their skills and we encourage them to generate innovative ideas that help to support our services in providing excellent patient care.

The Finance department is on an exciting transformation journey and has achieved One NHS Finance Towards Excellence accreditation level 2. We recently implemented a new financial ledger system and plan a future phase of development which should enhance the experience of finance and non-finance staff using the new ledger system.

As an accredited organisation with AAT, ACCA, CIMA and CIPFA; we have reinforced our commitment to staff development by encouraging Continuing Professional Development, offering developmental opportunities through programmes run by the Skills Development Network and through the introduction of several transitional training roles (which receive a generous study package).

What should you do next?

This vacancy will close at midnight on 25/02/2024.

We are seeking talented staff to build a diverse workforce which accurately reflects the values of the trust, patients, and population that we serve within Lincolnshire.
