People - Non-executive Director

The Organisation

This is an exciting opportunity to join a Board delivering real value to frontline NHS Services. We are purpose led and our Board really makes a difference.

Established in 2013, NHS Property Services is a property owner and manager, advisor and service provider. We manage around 3,000 buildings with 7,000 tenants employing over 5,500 property and facilities management professionals. We were created to help shape the NHS estate, ensuring that our portfolio supports NHS needs both now and in the future. As a government-owned company, our primary purpose is to enable our customers to deliver excellent patient care.

NHS Property Services partners with Integrated Care Boards, Trusts, and GP practices across England to better assess, adapt, safely and sustainably. As part of the NHS, we know how it works and help our customers navigate the system more easily. Last year, for example, we unlocked more than £150 million to reinvest or reimagine spaces.

With a ‘customer at the heart’ mindset in everything we do, we have one of the biggest portfolios in the UK, at a total value of more than £3bn. This represents about 10% of the total NHS estate. We work in partnership with NHS organisations to deliver outstanding quality, generating best value and cost efficiencies that will benefit our colleagues, patients, and the wider health economy.

The Opportunity

As the NHS strives to transform and reshape models of care delivery, our role has never been more important. NHS Property Services will play a central part in influencing and supporting the future public healthcare estate, and we seek to appoint a Non-Executive Director to support us through the next phase of our journey.

The Board currently comprises our Chair, Shareholder Representative Director, and four Non-Executive Directors. We believe the role of a NED is to contribute independent perspectives, working with our strong and talented Board to provide strategic direction on organisation-wide issues, overseeing our future direction and delivery of wider strategies.

We seek to appoint Board colleagues of exceptional calibre, with track records of leadership demonstrated in comparably complex, multi-stakeholder environments. They must also demonstrate the capability to bring vision and ambition, inspiring a culture of exceptional service quality and performance, at all times living and promoting the values and purpose of NHS Property Services.

The Candidate

At this time, the Board wishes to complement its existing capabilities by bringing in skills in the following area:

People Committee – With a significant track record of success in a relevant executive role, you will bring experience of strategic people change and transformation within large-scale complex environments.
