A pivotal leadership role shaping the future of mental health and community care across the Thames Valley
Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust is at a defining point in its development. Serving a population of around two million people across four counties, we deliver mental health, community health and learning disability services that make a real difference to the lives of children, adults and families every day. With 7,600 dedicated colleagues working across 150 sites, we are united by our purpose: to provide safe, compassionate and high-quality care that helps people live healthier and more independent lives.
We are proud of our strong foundations. Rated Good by the CQC, we have a track record of financial stability, operational performance and improvement, with high patient experience scores and growing research capability driven by our strong academic partnerships. We are progressing major developments including the transformation of our community services, digital modernisation and the redevelopment of Warneford Park as a world-leading campus for research, education and innovation.
This is a moment of significant change and opportunity. From April 2026 the new NHS Thames Valley Integrated Care Board will be formed. Oxford Health will play a central leadership role in helping to design and deliver integrated models of care, tackle inequalities and shape system priorities across a population of 2.5 million people. Our leadership in specialised mental health provider collaboratives and our research strength give us real scope to influence the future of care across the region.
We now seek an exceptional Chief Executive Officer to lead Oxford Health into its next chapter.
You will be a visible, values-driven and inclusive leader with the strategic breadth, compassion and credibility to guide a complex organisation through transformation. You will bring a strong track record of senior leadership in a demanding healthcare environment, with the ability to inspire high-performing teams, strengthen culture and work collaboratively with partners across the wider system. You will set the tone for compassionate, patient-centred care that is delivered equitably across a diverse geography.
We provide physical, mental health and social care for people of all ages across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Swindon, Wiltshire, Bath and North East Somerset. Our services are delivered at community bases, hospitals, clinics and people’s homes, delivering care as close to home as possible. Our vision is that no matter who you are or where you are, you will tell us that you receive: “Outstanding care delivered by an outstanding team”
Our values are: “Caring, safe and excellent”
