East Sussex Healthcare Trust (ESHT) is looking for a new CEO to foster change and improvement internally and to play an integral part in the wider system across Sussex, helping to bring system solutions to local challenges.
East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust is a multi-site Trust with complementary acute services across two DGHs. We run a wide range of community services that serve around two thirds of the population of East Sussex. We have embraced integrated working and are regarded as a reliable and trusted system partner. Partnerships are strong, both within the NHS and beyond, and we have a strong, stable and effective Board with highly competent Executives and Non-Executives.
There is a distinctive culture to East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust that is easier to ‘feel’ than to define. We invest a huge amount of effort in creating a supportive climate that means staff can give of their best. This means our CEO needs to create a visible, positive reputation with staff as well as partners. Our workforce responds well to interested, committed, authentic leaders with humility. This, in turn, means meaningful, purposeful engagement.
First and foremost, we want a CEO that can build on this platform of success and embody the values we espouse in the way that they work. Understanding of and success in running a large complex organisation like ours will be essential.
While we take pride in our track record of good clinical, operational and financial standards, we are eager to do even better. Our new CEO will need to demonstrate delivery and good outcomes, achieved by working with clinical and operational leaders. Our finances are under stress, and our new CEO will need to shape a financially sustainable future, at pace, to match the clinical sustainability we need.
A wide range of staff benefits are available including staff development, enrolment in the NHS pension scheme, access to nurseries at Conquest Hospital and Eastbourne District General Hospital, staff restaurants, and on-site staff accommodation. All staff have access to free psychological support through our confidential Employee Assistance Programme available 24/7.
There has never been a better time to join East Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust. Submit your application today.
