You will have extensive experience leading complex HR and OD functions, within the NHS or a comparable large-scale complex organisation, with demonstrable success in delivering tangible improvements in staff engagement and organisational effectiveness.
This is not just another HR job - its a system-shaping, culture-defining and future-building opportunity. As CPO you will provide visible, credible and inspirational leadership, driving excellence across the full range of people services from workforce planning, recruitment and retention, to learning, development and cultural transformation.
You will influence and engage staff at all levels, embedding our values, promoting inclusion and belonging and ensure that the Trust is a great place for colleagues to grow and thrive. You will foster a culture that is patient-centred, empowering, fair, accountable, collaborative and committed to continuous improvement.
You'll also play a key role in shaping workforce strategies, advising the Chief Executive, Trust Board and senior leaders on complex workforce and OD, and confidently represent the Trust across system-wide workforce initiatives, partnerships and NHS programmes.
