Job overview
The Chief Operating Officer is the Senior Manager in the Oxford Academic Health Partners (OAHP), an established Academic Health Science Centre with the following Partners:
1. University of Oxford,
2. Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, and
3. Health Innovation Oxford and Thames Valley (HIOTV).
OAHP promotes and enables coordination between the Partners in research and research infrastructure, in teaching, education and workforce and in innovations to support local, regional, and national improvements in patient outcome. OAHP aims to facilitate and accelerate the translation of research into clinical practice to respond to major healthcare challenges such as multi-morbidity, mental health, and the best use of digital tools to improve care and patient self-management. OAHP is at the centre of a dynamic research culture which is strengthened by promotion of multidisciplinary working and collaboration, extending healthcare research and education into new disciplines.
OAHP continues to focus on the emerging priorities of the NHS Year Plan and other key areas highlighted by the Life Science Missions, including the Mental Health Mission already based in Oxford.
The Role
The OAHP Chief Operating Officer (COO) is central to the development and delivery of the OAHP’s objectives. The COO requires an unusual blend of skills and experience, most likely gained from working at a senior level in either NHS and University environments, or in related roles allied to health and medical sciences, with a strong track record project initiation, development, operational delivery, and implementation.
The post holder is required to operate at what is effectively Board level across five organisations to deliver against a national agenda and to bring together new and innovative ways of collaboration and partnerships.
The post holder is responsible for ensuring performance, setting, tracking and overseeing project delivery and managing resources over several years linked to the delivery of the Board’s priorities.
The post holder will oversee and take part in the delivery of OAHP Board agreed objectives and programmes ensuring full engagement of Partners and their teams, their own involvement and leadership, and regular reporting to the Chair of the OAHP Board and, through its members, to the Partner Boards.
The ability to act with autonomy in representing the views of the Board and the Partners is critical. The COO will be an accomplished, influential and inclusive leader with the ability to work across boundaries, representing all Partners.
