I am really proud of the work I have done in reviewing structures for organisations in both New Zealand and the UK. I enjoy working with owners and leaders to identify the most effective ways to manage assets and resources for the best possible delivery of services to their clients.
Francis Health is a company with a very real public service ethos, and a strong family-style culture. This means that colleagues work closely together across the Group, to share best practice and support each other's work. We are united around a desire to deliver the best service to clients, and going the extra mile to do so.
I am managing the delivery of performance improvement support to primary care in the UK, on behalf of NHS England. This is a 3-year national programme, and our joint venture subsidiary, SHIL UK, is one of only four delivery partners contracted by NHS England.
