WHY YOU SHOULD CONSIDER THIS ROLE AS YOUR NEXT CAREER MOVE
We are preparing to become a successful NHS Foundation Trust in 2009. This will allow us to grow and develop the range of services we are able to provide, as well as invest in our infrastructure whilst operating as an independent healthcare enterprise. We will be working in an increasingly more competitive environment alongside other NHS and private sector providers and are taking steps now to maximise the opportunities we have to deliver more services with our existing clients, whilst taking a strategic approach to identifying and planning for new market opportunities.
Becoming a highly success independent healthcare business will require considerable change in organisational behaviour, approach and with regard to how we deal with both our commissioners and service users. In this new position of Commercial Director, you will play a pivotal role in bringing about that change.
Working closely with our Directors of Operations, Chief Executive and leadership team, you will enjoy a wide remit, which covers; strategic business and service planning and development; leading on new business proposal and winning contracts. These areas will test your strategic and analytical thinking capabilities, net working and influencing skills, leadership and entrepreneurial creativity.
Having operated in a similar commercial development or sales and marketing role within the private or wider public service environment, you will be seeking a role where your contribution is highly visible and impact on people’s lives. This is a new role, one in which you can make your own foot- print. You will be inspired and motivated by the opportunity to work at board level as a corporate director alongside professional experts where your expertise can be clearly demonstrated.
