About Our Client:

Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust (GOSH) is a national centre of excellence in the provision of specialist children's health care, currently delivering the widest range of specialist care of any children's hospital in the UK.

It is the only specialist Biomedical Research Centre for paediatrics, the largest centre in the UK for children and young people with heart or brain problems, and the largest centre in Europe for children and young people with cancer.

It works in partnership with the UCL Institute of Child Health (ICH), part of University College London, and together they form the largest paediatric research and teaching centre in the UK.

The hospital at Great Ormond Street is the only exclusively specialist children's hospital in the UK.

It does not have an Accident and Emergency department and only accepts specialist referrals from other hospitals and community services.

The population of children and young people served by the hospital is characterised by those with multiple disabilities and/or health problems and rare and congenital (present at birth) conditions.

Many children and young people need the help of different specialist teams.

Improvements in health care and diagnosis mean that many children and young people have dramatically improved survival rates and more therapeutic options than was the case 10 years ago.

Sadly though, many of the children cared for at GOSH still have life threatening or life-limiting conditions.

The hospital receives over 255,000 patient visits (inpatient admissions or outpatient appointments) a year, and carries our approximately 18,800 operations each year.

The hospital has 383 patient beds, including 44 intensive care beds (21 CICU, 15 PICU and 8 NICU).

Many of the children and young people on our wards require high dependency care or are classed as ward intensive care, requiring one-to-one nursing.

Around 4,100 full-time and part-time staff work at the hospital. The ICH has around 600 staff. Many senior staff have roles in both organisations.

The hospital has approximately 50 paediatric specialties, the widest range of any hospital in the UK, which uniquely enables it to diagnose and pioneer treatments for children and young people with highly complex, rare or multiple conditions.

It has 19 highly specialised national services.

The key duties of the role are as followed:

To lead and manage a team of Finance staff (including Finance Mangers, Assistant Finance Managers, Senior Management Accountants and Management Accountants) in the production of high quality financial management information, income and expenditure, for a range of clinical and corporate units.
To identify opportunities for information or quality improvements within the wider Financial Management team, supporting the Deputy Head of Financial Management and Head of Financial Management to ensure every opportunity is taken to develop and enhance the provision of an expert Financial Management service to the Trust.
To provide a high quality financial management reporting service with a focus on identifying trends, risks and opportunities, communicating these to senior finance staff, clinical unit / corporate department management teams and to the executive team in such a way that its use informs management decision making. To produce high quality reports for clinical boards as well as for the CFO, and external organisations such as DOH and NHSI.
To attend key meetings to lead discussions on the financial performance of clinical units and corporate departments
To develop robust forecasting systems and models, in association with financial planning, clinical services, information services and service level agreement teams. To ensure these systems are monitored for accuracy and assumptions are challenged with appropriate individuals to ensure that information presented is robust, accurate, deliverable and owned by relevant individuals.
To support with the development and enhancement of CIP reporting and tracking systems.
To lead the overall annual business planning and budget setting process for clinical units and corporate departments within the portfolio and to support the Finance staff in delivering required tasks for their designated areas.
