DEP DIR of Nursing,clinical Capital Projects&W Transformation - 8D

Lincolnshire Community and Hospitals NHS Group is entering an ambitious period of clinical, estate and service transformation. Across Lincolnshire, we are developing new models of care that bring services closer to people's homes, strengthen neighbourhood working and create more integrated community services. At the same time, we are transforming our acute hospital estate and progressing a broader portfolio of capital developments, refurbishments, service relocations and infrastructure improvements across the Group. We are looking for an exceptional senior nurse to join us as Deputy Director of Nursing – Clinical Capital Projects and Workforce Transformation and provide senior clinical leadership across this wider Estates and Capital portfolio. This is a unique opportunity to influence how our buildings, workforce and models of care develop together. The postholder will act as the senior clinical bridge between Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professionals, Care Groups, operational services and our Estates and Capital teams. You will ensure that clinical requirements are embedded not only within major new-build schemes, but across the broader capital portfolio. A major focus of the role will be clinical workforce transformation. You will work alongside Care Groups to ensure that investment in the estate is matched by a clear future operating model and workforce transformation plan. This means making sure we do not simply move existing ways of working into new buildings, but use capital investment as an opportunity to redesign pathways, roles, skill mix, technology and multidisciplinary working. You will also ensure that workforce and clinical requirements are considered early enough to influence estate and capital planning, rather than being addressed once designs have already been developed. You Will Contribute To The Strategic Development Of The Group's Estates And Capital Portfolio, Helping To Ensure Investment Decisions Are Informed By

• future clinical strategy;
• population and patient need;
• workforce sustainability;
• neighbourhood models of care;
• acute service transformation;
• patient safety and quality;
• clinical adjacencies and patient flow;
• digital transformation;
• workforce productivity;
• accessibility and health inequalities; and
• long-term service sustainability. You will provide a strong clinical voice into estate prioritisation and capital planning, helping the organisation understand not only what we need to build, but how services will operate within it and what workforce will be required to make it successful. At LCHG, our ambition is to create a more integrated model of care across Lincolnshire. Our emerging neighbourhood approach will support more people to receive coordinated care closer to home, while our acute hospitals continue to evolve to provide high-quality, efficient and sustainable specialist and hospital-based care. Our estate must support that ambition. That Means Developing Environments Which Enable
• integrated neighbourhood teams;
• prevention and earlier intervention;
• better flow between community and hospital services;
• new workforce and multidisciplinary models;
• digitally enabled care;
• efficient use of clinical space;
• improved patient and staff experience;
• greater productivity;
• flexibility for future service change; and
• consistently safe and high-quality care. The successful candidate will play a central role in translating this ambition into practical estate, workforce and operating models.
