Summary
Group Director of Strategic Infrastructure - VSM Tier 1
Barts Health is keen to welcome an enthusiastic new director who will understand the importance of collaboration across North East London and with other partners. It is absolutely critical that the new Group Director of Strategic Infrastructure shares, and role models, the group’s values.
The role will require careful navigation of strategic capital projects against a finite level of resources. This will be done in conjunction with the Finance team and senior responsible officers. This person will have direct accountability for the directorate’s budgets and the associated workforce. The Group Director of Strategic Infrastructure will work on developing a structure that responds to the demands of today including compliance assurance and collaboration of partners.
This role forms a vital part of the strategic leadership of the Trust, and its ability to deliver, now and in the future, world-class quality of care to a growing population. This is an ambitious and substantial brief with responsibility for leading some of the largest developments in the NHS. Barts Health is a significant player in the collaboration work across the North East London system. There are great opportunities for the function to expand across a bigger footprint by demonstrating the benefits of collaboration. Creation and delivery of an estates strategy which is aligned with the Trust’s overall clinical strategy is vital to Barts Health’s continued sustainability and further development towards becoming an outstanding organisation.
Barts Health is one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, and one of Britain’s leading healthcare providers.
The Barts Health group of NHS hospitals is entering an exciting new era on our improvement journey to becoming an outstanding organisation with a world-class clinical reputation. Having lifted ourselves out of special measures, we now have the impetus and breathing space to chart a fresh course in which we are continually striving to improve all our services for patients.
Our vision is to be a high-performing group of NHS hospitals, renowned for excellence and innovation, and providing safe and compassionate care to our patients in east London and beyond. That means being a provider of excellent patient safety, known for delivering consistently high standards of harm-free care and always caring for patients in the right place at the right time. It also means being an outstanding place to work, in which our WeCare values and behaviours are visible to all and guide us in how we work together.
We strive to live by our WeCare values and are committed to promoting inclusion, where every staff member has a sense of belonging. We value our differences and fully advocate, cultivate and support an inclusive working environment.
Reporting to the Group Chief Finance Officer, the post is responsible for developing, leading and delivering the overall estate strategy of the Trust, including supporting the effective delivery of capital project management. The role will also ensure efficient and effective day to day management of the estate, the major PFI contracts at three of our hospital sites (St Bartholomew’s Hospital, The Royal London and Newham University Hospital) and the significant recently insourced soft FM services across the Group.
