Performance Improvement Manager (Band 8a) Fixed Term - 12 months (secondment cover)
This role sits at the point where organisational strategy is translated into delivery — shaping how we plan, govern and deliver complex change across the Trust. It offers an opportunity to work across the space between strategy, transformation and operational delivery: understanding how priorities become programmes, how those programmes are tracked and assured, and how issues are identified and addressed early. This would suit someone who is interested in how organisations actually deliver change and those looking to move into a more system‑wide, portfolio‑level role. The Performance Improvement team sits within the Transformation and Performance Improvement directorate, working across major Trust priorities — including supporting the move to our new hospital at King's Cross. We help the organisation plan, assure and deliver improvement work that strengthens performance, productivity and financial sustainability. Our role is to provide structure, clarity and oversight across a complex portfolio of change.
Work across a broad portfolio of transformation activity, helping ensure that programmes are well-designed, effectively governed and delivering as intended.
* Develop insight across a complex portfolio of change
* Identify risks, issues and dependencies early
* Support consistent governance, tools and reporting
* Support priority improvement programmes, including cost improvement
* Strengthen the link between data, reporting and decision-making
A key part of the role is understanding delivery in practice, not just what is reported, but what is happening beneath the surface and using that to inform decisions. You will work with clinical, operational and corporate teams who own delivery, while aligning closely with transformation, finance and performance colleagues. Your role is less about direct delivery, and more about shaping how programmes are set up and governed, providing constructive challenge, bringing consistency across the portfolio and helping teams to deliver more effectively.
* Consistent and clear reporting against agreed outcomes
* Effective governance and assurance across programmes (including stage gates)
* Early identification and escalation of risks and delivery issues
* Ensuring work is planned and controlled to support delivery, benefits realisation and value for money
* Salary including High‑Cost Area Supplement
* Free 24/7 independent counselling service
* Learning and development opportunities
* Easy and quick transport links
* A range of attractive benefits and discounts
* Access to Blue Light Card and other NHS Discount Schemes
* Free Pilates classes
* Full support and training to develop your skills
* Flexible working-friendly organisation
* And so much more!
