Chief Executive – St Luke’s Hospice (Harrow & Brent)
Salary: Circa £115,000 plus pension and benefits. London / Hybrid.
St Luke’s Hospice provides specialist palliative and end-of-life care for people in Harrow and Brent, supporting patients and their families to live as well as possible, for as long as possible. Our care is free, compassionate and centred on what matters most to each person.
Founded by local communities in 1987, St Luke’s delivers care in people’s homes, across the community and from our Kenton Grange hospice, set within tranquil gardens. Our inpatient unit supports people in their final days, helps manage complex symptoms and provides respite care for patients and families.
This is a pivotal time to join us. As we approach our 40th anniversary, we are investing in our estate, strengthening our financial sustainability and developing services that meet the changing needs of our communities.
As Chief Executive, you will lead St Luke’s strategically and operationally, ensuring outstanding care, sound governance, financial resilience, strong partnerships and a culture rooted in our values.
Working with the Board of Trustees, Executive and Senior Leadership Team, staff, volunteers and partners, you will shape the next chapter of a much-loved local organisation. You will ensure St Luke’s remains innovative, responsive and sustainable in a changing health and care landscape, while continuing to provide care with dignity, compassion and respect.
We are seeking a proven leader with experience in healthcare, hospice, social care or the charity sector, and a strong track record of working with Boards or Non-Executive Directors. You will bring financial and commercial acumen, experience of regulated services, and the confidence to build effective relationships with NHS partners, commissioners, local authorities, donors, supporters and community stakeholders.
You will be visible, collaborative and inclusive, with the integrity, resilience, emotional intelligence and credibility to inspire staff, volunteers and stakeholders. You will share our values and bring the strategic judgement, communication skills and commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion needed to lead St Luke’s through its next stage of development.
