You will be accountable to the Board of Trustees and report directly to the Chair. The postholder will be supported by a highly experienced Executive Team to deliver a high performing service that is efficient and accessible to all.
This is an exciting time to join Farleigh Hospice and contribute to our incredible journey. As Interim Chief Executive, we will be looking to you to progress current strategic projects to completion which include organisational focus on data, new commercial income generation opportunities, and strategic planning for 2026 and beyond.
