Welcome

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your interest in the post of Chief Executive for NHS Lanarkshire. The vacancy exists as a consequence of the retirement of Ian Ross, our current Chief Executive.

The role of Chief Executive is pivotal in leading transformational change across the NHS and public sector in Lanarkshire as we strive to deliver a healthier future for our communities.

This is an excellent opportunity for an exceptional person who can evidence outstanding leadership qualities. We are seeking a talented, credible leader with vision, enthusiasm and energy for the role.

Our new Chief Executive will adopt and demonstrate our values, will lead a successful organisation as it tackles new challenges and will be responsible for the continued development of NHS Lanarkshire’s reputation for success and progress in health improvement, tackling inequalities and delivery of high quality and safe healthcare.

If you believe you can fulfil these aspirations we look forward to receiving your application.

If you require any additional information or wish to discuss the role, informal enquiries are welcomed in confidence by Mrs Neena Mahal, Chair and/or Ian Ross, the retiring postholder. This should be arranged through contact, in the first instance, with Kenneth Small, Director of Human Resources on 01698 858198 or alternatively by email on kenneth.small@lanarkshire.scot.nhs.uk.

I would also draw your attention to the NHS Lanarkshire’s website www.nhslanarkshire.org.uk for up to date information.
