St Gemma’s Hospice has been providing expert care to the people of Leeds for 45 years. We provide the best possible care and support for local people with life-limiting and terminal illnesses and we specialise in pain relief and symptom control to help people live as well as possible, for as long as possible. St Gemma’s is the largest hospice in Yorkshire and one of the largest in the UK.
We now have an outstanding opportunity for someone to embrace a wide and complex role in an organisation cherished across Leeds and respected nationally for pioneering and innovative approaches to palliative and end of life care. We are a leader in research, education and translating evidence into practice and work in partnership with the University of Leeds as the first University Teaching Hospice.
In our new chief executive we are seeking an experienced and proven strategic leader within a complex organisation, preferably within health and care. You will join a strong and dedicated leadership team committed to delivering excellence. The ability to work collaboratively both internally and externally is crucial, and you will drive continuous improvement, building and developing effective relationships with all our staff and stakeholders. Excellent leadership, financial acumen, communication and team-building skills are a must and, of course, you will also be someone who cares deeply about the wellbeing of the people we serve.
This is an important time to join our organisation, providing an exceptional platform for an inspiring leader who is driven by our mission to make a meaningful impact.
If this opportunity excites you and you believe you have the skills and experience to lead St Gemma’s Hospice into its next phase, please visit https://starfishsearch.com/jobs/st-gem-ce/
