Job responsibilities

Programme leadership and delivery

Act as the senior programme lead for the Culture Programme, maintaining a clear delivery plan, milestones, dependencies, benefits, resources and accountabilities across the programme lifecycle.

Translate the culture diagnostic, strategic priorities, NHS Staff Standards and staff insight into sequenced workstreams and interventions with clear outcomes and measures.

Lead mobilisation of the first 1218 months, including socialising the case for change, developing and co-designing the culture vision, engaging staff, delivering prioritised quick wins, addressing known hotspots, writing the culture strategy and developing the next phase delivery plan.

Lead longer-term implementation using compassionate and collective leadership as the programmes organising framework, ensuring interventions address structures, systems and behaviours.

Identify and manage interfaces with EPR, Oriel, workforce transformation, improvement and operational People and OD priorities so culture activity supports, rather than competes with, major organisational change.

Desirable

Substantial experience within the NHS or another complex, regulated, safety-critical organisation

Education

Essential

Educated to master's degree level or able to demonstrate equivalent specialist knowledge and experience in organisational development, organisational psychology, change, HR or a related field.
