It’s a big job which needs an experienced and empowering leader who’ll bring energy, drive and a fresh perspective to the delivery of our strategic ambitions and priorities working with the boards, councils of governors and staff across our two organisations. Your strong track record in continuous quality and service improvement and ability to inspire and influence will be central to the way you approach this.

You’ll play a leading role in continuing to develop Our Dorset, our well-established and respected integrated care system. Partnership working is in our DNA in Dorset so you’ll be adept at collaboration and comfortable with complexity.

It will be important for you to build relationships and earn the trust and respect of a wide range of stakeholders including our staff, our partners and, most importantly, the people of Dorset. To do this you’ll need to be continually listening and learning, with a relentless focus on empowering people to make the most of their lives.

Put simply, we’re looking for an outstanding leader who is compassionate, inclusive, creative and committed to achieving results and improving the health and wellbeing of our people and communities.
