Description

ABOUT THE TRUST:

This NHS Trust provides a range of medical services to approximately 400,000+ people living across South West London and North East Surrey. In addition, the Trust provides specialist services, in particular renal and neonatal intensive care, to a wider area, covering parts of Sussex and Hampshire. The Trust serves an area that is rich in diversity, with a mix of urban and rural areas, and differing levels of quality of life. Covering some of the most prosperous postcodes in the country, as well as some poorer areas, the Trust works to make sure that they deliver the best possible care to the communities they serve.

ABOUT THE ASSIGNMENT:

Cancer Services is being moved from its current position within the larger Surgery directorate to a stand alone, specialist service. The reasons for this are to ensure a renewed and vigorous focus on the delivery of all Cancer Service targets including the 62 day target. The remit of this assignment is to deliver some immediate / short term improvements to current Cancer performance and ensure long term improvements are put in place including the identification and recruitment of a substantive, stand alone Cancer Service Manager once a new Operating structure has been identified.

ABOUT THE SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATE:

Reporting directly to the Chief Operating officer for an initial period of 6 months, the successful candidate will be an experienced NHS General or Service Manager with extensive experience of managing Cancer Services, Cancer networks and supporting Cancer Surgery departments. Experience gained in other Surgical Directorates and / or Theatres would be beneficial and the successful candidate will have proven influencing and negotiation experience and be au fait with managing relationships with Clinicians. Experience gained in the Private Healthcare arena will also be of interest as will any previous experienced gained in a Nursing environment, particularly Cancer Services.

DAILY RATE AND TIMESCALES:

This role is to start at the end of November / early December and is paying a professional daily rate of circa £500 per day. This assignment is initially for 6 months.
