Main duties of the job
The East of England Ambulance Service has made considerable improvement over the last three years which has been acknowledged by regulators with the move from the National Recovery Support Programme. Our people are proud of this and the other improvements in our culture demonstrated through staff survey results. The successful candidate will support leaders to continue these improvements and share their pride in being part of an improving organisation.
Delivering our performance standards and financial and regulatory goals is essential, but this must be achieved through delivering on core commitments to transform our culture at all levels utilising business planning frameworks and inspiring teams to work together. We want someone who understands the complexities of delivering in-year performance, whilst planning and delivering on longer term strategic ambition. There remains more work to do to complete our journey, requiring an exceptional leader to drive it forward.
About us
Serving a population of million people across 7,500 square miles, East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust provides both accident and emergency services and non-emergency transport to the communities of the East of England. With over 5000 staff, 1000 volunteers and 498 frontline vehicles (with the intention to grow to 525 by October We work across 6 Integrated Care Systems to deliver patient focused care across the region and we received 1,384,547 emergency 999 calls last year.
Job descriptionJob responsibilities
We are firmly on an improvement pathway. NHS England has recognised the progress we have made and removed us from the National Recovery Support Programme (formerly known as Special Measures) earlier this year. We were placed in special measures in 2020 following concerns relating to culture, leadership and governance. A 2020 CQC inspection highlighted a number of significant concerns and significant progress has been made in addressing CQC conditions, with only two remaining open. Both are expected to close by the end of the financial year. These improvements underscore our commitment to upholding the highest standards of quality and safety and reflect the hard work of our people. However, we recognise there is much more still to do and we continue to work closely with NHS England.
We have also taken a number of actions to drive culture change and improve the wellbeing of our people which is demonstrated through improvements in our staff survey results and retention data. We remain steadfast in our commitment to driving positive change, enhancing patient care, and fostering a culture of wellbeing and quality at EEAST.
