POSITION CLOSED

We are now seeking to appoint commercially driven and financially astute Business Partners. These new roles support the Trust in moving away from the traditional NHS way of managing finances to integrating business and decision support within our service teams.

Whilst the Business Partners will provide financial leadership for each Clinical Management Team (CMT), these roles will be much more than just finance and will play a lead role in business planning, capacity and activity planning, activity based management, investment management, productivity improvement and procurement.

This is a great opportunity to be part of a progressive team and work towards the aim of delivering the best services, with the highest standards of care for local people. 

Reporting to the Deputy Director of Finance the individuals will take full responsibility for providing comprehensive financial information, advice and support to the CMT.

Delivering modern management accounting practices and business knowledge, you will utilise strong analytical and communication skills to develop understanding of complex financial issues to non finance managers.

This post will be accountable for the CMT’s adherence to statutory accounting requirements and Trust policies for internal control, corporate governance and reporting requirements.
