Band 8b – Inside IR35
Are you a seasoned Acute operational leader who thrives in fast -paced, clinically complex environments? We're working with an NHS organisation who are undergoing a significant operational restructure, and they need an experienced Acute Service Manager to support them during this period of change.
You’ll play a vital role in embedding behaviours of accountability and openness, driving high operational performance, and building capacity across the Acute Oncology Services. You’ll bring a calm, visible leadership style and be confident working alongside senior clinicians and managers to deliver against key performance targets.
What we're looking for:
* A strong operations background in an NHS Acute setting – ideally within Cancer, Acute Oncology, or potentially a similar fast paced environment such as SDEC/UEC.
* An understanding of what “good” looks like in Acute operational delivery
* Confidence in supporting and guiding teams through change
* Credibility within specialist services and the ability to work collaboratively within a triumvirate model
* Knowledge of cancer targets and pathways is highly desirable
