The North West London Primary Care Provider Collaborative (NWL PCPC) is a newly established Community Interest Company bringing together primary care provider organisations from across North West London to create a stronger, more influential voice for primary care within one of the country's largest and most complex health systems. Collectively representing organisations serving a population of more than two million people, the Collaborative has been created to enable primary care to work at greater scale, shape system strategy and deliver services differently. As Integrated Care Systems continue to evolve and new responsibilities transfer from the Integrated Care Board, the Collaborative will play an increasingly significant role in supporting neighbourhood working, hosting strategic functions and delivering services on behalf of the wider NHS. We are now seeking to appoint our inaugural Chief Executive to help establish and lead this ambitious new organisation at a defining moment in its development.

Working in partnership with the inaugural Independent Chair, Board and shareholder organisations, the Chief Executive will provide strategic, organisational and operational leadership for the Collaborative. As the organisation's first substantive Chief Executive, the successful candidate will play a central role in defining strategy, establishing the operating model and executive leadership team, and building the organisational capability, partnerships and credibility required to become a trusted and influential voice for primary care across North West London. You will lead through influence rather than hierarchy, bringing together independent organisations around a shared purpose whilst positioning the Collaborative to secure new responsibilities, develop new services and support improved outcomes for local communities.

We are seeking an accomplished and collaborative executive leader with significant senior-level leadership experience gained within healthcare, the wider public sector or another complex stakeholder environment. Candidates will have a strong track record of organisational development, transformation or growth, together with experience of building effective partnerships across organisational boundaries and influencing senior stakeholders where there is no direct line of authority. The successful candidate will bring strong commercial and financial acumen, political judgement and the ability to balance strategic thinking with operational delivery. They will be comfortable working in ambiguity, adept at building trust and consensus, and motivated by improving public services and outcomes for local communities. A commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion and the Nolan Principles of Public Life is essential.

This is a rare opportunity to become the founding Chief Executive of one of the most significant new organisations in primary care. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to build an organisation from its earliest stages, shaping its strategy, culture, partnerships and long-term influence across one of the country's largest and most dynamic health systems. We are particularly keen to attract applications from individuals whose backgrounds, experiences and perspectives reflect the diverse communities of North West London and who share our ambition to transform the future of primary care.
