Chief Nursing Officer – North London NHS Foundation Trust

We have an extremely exciting opportunity to join our Trust as Chief Nursing Officer. We are seeking an exceptional Chief Nursing Officer who has the energy and passion to make a sustainable and lasting difference to our populations and those we care for.

The Chief Nursing Officer role is an exciting and challenging role at the heart of our organisation and integral to the Trust’s vision. As a member of the Trust Board and executive team, you will provide strong, visible and professional leadership and ensure that patient safety and the delivery of high-quality care remain central to our strategic direction and decision-making. We are looking for a Chief Nursing Officer who will role model our values, supporting positive and mutually respectful relationships at all levels in the organisation, acting with kindness and championing inclusion at all times.

Providing influential and visible clinical leadership, you will inspire our clinical and nursing workforce as well as Trust partners to build on our reputation of delivering the highest quality mental health care in a complex and increasingly integrated health economy. We are committed to our people plan, so you will help us to retain, develop, support and attract staff with a key focus on improving staff’s health, safety and wellbeing.

The role requires an individual with a passionate and forward-thinking approach to clinical leadership, quality and improvement. Our ideal Chief Nursing Officer will need to demonstrate clinical excellence and innovation in healthcare and possess the ability and charisma to engage staff and stakeholders on a national stage.

Our Trust recognises the importance of promoting equality and eliminating discrimination in all aspects of our operations, from recruitment and employment practices to patient care and service delivery. We especially welcome applications from candidates from the global majority, LGBTQ+ community, or those with lived experience of a disability, to strengthen the diversity of our Board so that it is representative of our team and the local population we serve. This is an exciting time to be part of our journey.
