This is an exciting opportunity to join Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust as a Project Manager (Band 6) within a growing and ambitious transformation function. These roles have been created as we expand our capability and continue to develop a more formalised Project Management Office (PMO) to support delivery of our five-year strategy and organisational ambitions.
You will support the delivery of a range of transformation projects, aligned to organisational priorities and programme requirements. This may include supporting improvements to patient pathways such as outpatients, access and flow, contributing to corporate service redesign and non-clinical workforce transformation, or supporting projects focused on the development and modernisation of our estate.
Working within our developing PMO, you will contribute to embedding consistent project management approaches, governance and ways of working, helping to support a culture of high-quality delivery and continuous improvement.
This is an excellent opportunity for an aspiring or developing project professional who enjoys hands-on delivery, thrives in a fast-paced environment, and wants to build their experience while contributing to meaningful improvements in patient care, staff experience and organisational performance.
The proposed interview date is: 19th August
As a Project Manager, you will support the delivery of projects within a broad transformation portfolio, contributing to a range of initiatives aligned to organisational priorities.
You will support the development and maintenance of project plans, risks, issues and dependencies, track progress against milestones, and help ensure projects are delivered to agreed time, cost and quality standards.
You will contribute to projects that improve patient pathways and operational performance, support corporate service redesign and non-clinical workforce transformation, or assist with estates transformation programmes to improve the environment in which care is delivered.
In all cases, you will support the identification and tracking of measurable benefits and contribute to ensuring that change is effectively embedded and sustainable over the longer term.
You will work closely with colleagues across clinical, operational, estates and corporate services, building positive working relationships to support delivery and stakeholder engagement. You will also contribute to the ongoing
development of the PMO, supporting improvements in governance, reporting and delivery approaches.
We are looking for candidates with project management experience or transferable skills. You will be organised, proactive and motivated, with strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, and the ability to manage competing priorities while supporting delivery in a complex and evolving environment.
Join a forward-thinking and ambitious transformation function delivering a diverse portfolio of programmes across Clinical Services, Research, Corporate Services, Innovation, Commercial Development and Estates Transformation.
Our transformation function is clinically led, divisional owned and executive sponsored, bringing together colleagues from across the Trust to deliver sustainable change. Supported by strong governance and established delivery frameworks, we are committed to embedding continuous improvement as part of how we work.
As part of our developing Project Management Office (PMO), you will have the opportunity to contribute to a growing and evolving function, helping to strengthen project delivery standards, capability and approaches across the organisation.
We are looking for individuals who are passionate about improvement, enjoy working collaboratively and can build strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. Working alongside clinical leaders, operational teams and partners of the wider system, you will play an important role in delivering meaningful change that benefits our patients, staff and communities.
