The push to meet finance and performance targets, a new NHS operating model including neighbourhood health, and devolution are changing how health systems in the North work. CF is opening an office in the North to support them. We are looking for a Partner to build and lead it, winning work with NHS leaders across the region and growing a local team. The Role You will open and lead our new Northern office, in Manchester or Leeds (to be agreed with the successful candidate) and build a local business and team.

You will shape CF's strategy and business plan for the North and build the CF brand in the region, and over time potentially in other markets. Reporting to the Managing Partner for Health Systems, you will be a member of CF's senior leadership team. You will develop our people: recruiting, mentoring and acting as a development sponsor, and building a strong local culture that stays closely connected to our London team. We win work through relationships and insight.

What you will sell Financial performance and improvement: provider financial recovery, cost improvement, productivity and system financial planning. Strategy and transformation: helping integrated care boards and providers plan and deliver change across their systems, including neighbourhood health, preparing for integrated health contracts and responding to devolution.
