Barts Health NHS Trust Head of Strategy Delivery The closing date is 09 November 2026 Apply for this job Job summary An exciting opportunity has arisen for a senior, strategic and system-minded individual to join the Whipps Cross Redevelopment Programme team as Head of Strategy Delivery, connecting the development of the new Centre of Excellence for frailty and complex needs with the wider transformation of health and care across north east London. The role will involve working closely with the Strategy Delivery Director, the Deputy Director of Neighbourhood Transformation, senior clinical and operational colleagues and partners across the local health and care system. A Centre of Excellence is only as good as the community and system around it and in this role you will be the connection between the development of the Centre of Excellence for frailty and complex needs - the next phase of the Whipps Cross redevelopment - and the wider transformation of health and care across the system, ensuring the Centre is designed hand-in-hand with neighbourhood health, research and education, and estates and facilities partners, and takes its place as a genuine community asset. You will lead work to align the programme with system transformation priorities, broker relationships with partners across primary, community and social care, and make sure that what is planned for the Centre strengthens - and is strengthened by - the care being built around it in people's homes and neighbourhoods.
