Could you be our next Directorate General Manager for Surgical Services?

January 26, 2021

Are you ready for the challenge of being a Directorate General Manager for Surgical Services (8b) on a 6-12 month secondment basis starting in February 2021?

This is an exciting time to be joining the senior team in Surgical Services as we plan to develop, implement and embed service improvements to enable us to restart surgery following COVID-19 and also to ensure that we are performing to our very best as we move into MMUH.

We’re keen to develop someone internally into this role who knows the organisation, the key stakeholders, our patients and our processes. It’s vital the successful applicant understands the challenges of delivering high quality, patient focussed surgical services in this challenging and increasingly fast-paced environment.

Although you do not need to have direct experience of surgical services, you will need to have transferrable skills and you will need to be keen to take on new challenges and think about how we can work differently to achieve measurable success. Please see the job description and person specification for more details. The role is band 8b and plays a key part in our group senior leadership team as well as across the organisation.

Any expressions of interest should be made via email to Marion Pavitt at marion.pavitt@nhs.net by Monday 1 February 2021. Interviews will take place the following week. Please discuss your release from your substantive post with your line manager first to ensure that this would be feasible.
