North Bristol NHS Trust (NBT) and University Hospitals Bristol and Weston NHS Foundation Trust (UHBW) have come together in partnership to form Bristol NHS Group, to deliver seamless, high-quality, equitable and sustainable care for every person across Bristol, Weston, South Gloucestershire, and the wider South West. Together, we are the third largest NHS group in the country, with over 28,000 staff and a combined turnover exceeding £2.3 billion. Our scale gives us the influence and capability to transform care for our communities.
Our Joint Clinical Strategy is already delivering benefits and the opportunity ahead of us is compelling. We are proud to be an anchor institution, working closely with partners in the lively city of Bristol and beyond. Over 40% of the services we provide are specialist, placing us firmly on the national stage, with growing international partnerships.
This role is about more than organisational scale. It is the opportunity to lead a broad and important portfolio across the Group, leading for the benefit of our brilliant people. The role requires a strategic perspective, with a focus on people-centred and future-focused transformation. You will be a pivotal part of our Group leadership and play a critical role in shaping our culture and how we engage with our people, while delivering more for our patients, the populations we serve and the public purse.
We’re open to candidates from any sector – what matters most is transformation expertise and a passion for creating the conditions in which people can flourish and develop. If you’re someone who sees the potential in people, who thrives on complexity, and who wants to help shape the future of healthcare at scale, please contact us for a conversation.
We respect and value the diversity of our workforce, patients, service users, relatives, carers and visitors and welcome applications from all backgrounds.
The closing date for applications is Monday 21st July 2025.
