Main duties
As a member of the Trust Board, the CXO will ensure that the voices of patients, service users, families, carers, volunteers, communities and staff directly influence decision making, service design and organisational priorities. Through co-production, culture change and evidence-based improvement, the postholder will help create an organisation where people choose to work, patients choose to receive care and communities experience equitable outcomes.
The postholder will lead the development of a modern, data-driven approach to experience improvement, recognising the equal importance of quantitative and qualitative insight. They will harness advances in digital technology, artificial intelligence, behavioural insight and real-time feedback systems to identify emerging themes, predict risks, support learning and drive continuous improvement.
The CXO will work collaboratively with Executive colleagues, particularly the Chief Executive, Chief Nursing Officer, Medical Director, Director of People, Chief Technology Officer and Patient Safety leadership, recognising that patient experience, staff experience and organisational culture remain the responsibility of every leader across the Trust.
Success will be measured not simply through survey results, but through demonstrable improvements in organisational culture, staff wellbeing, retention, inclusion, patient outcomes, patient experience, system partnerships and reductions in inequalities.
