As a national NHS Board in Scotland, the Golden Jubilee’s modern, purpose built environment, combines a first class hospital with the  four star facilities in our conference hotel, and centres for research, clinical skills and innovation. In addition, a charitable body has been set up to create a new approach to funding innovation within NHSScotland.

This integrated approach, with a focus on continuous learning and improvement and strong links to academia and industry, creates a crucible for innovation and a vibrant network for the spread of learning and best practice across the world.

Our unique Quality Framework provides assurance that safe, effective, person centred care is delivered at all times. Based on three programmes of Governance, Quality Indicators and a Values Based Workforce, the framework allows health organisations to better understand and react appropriately to ensure patients have a safe, high quality experience. Through the adoption of this Framework there is:

• a relentless focus on quality, performance, patient safety and experience;
• robust governance around decision making;
• a set of shared values, ensuring a culture of engagement and involvement at every level of the organisation;
• increased accountability and scrutiny of performance;
• visible leadership and support; and
• great emphasis in both the physical environment and its staff, being key pillars in the overall patient experience.

Our person-centred approach to healthcare encourages an ethos that is open, questioning and participative; everyone is encouraged to speak out and be actively involved in the quest for continuous improvement and innovation.

We value every patient, visitor and member of staff – currently over 1800 hard working and dedicated staff and volunteers work with us. Our values statements reflect the core behaviours we believe in:

• Valuing Dignity and Respect
• A ‘can do’ attitude
• Leading commitment to quality
• Understanding our responsibilities
• Effectively working together

The person we are looking for needs to embody all of these values, acting as an exceptional leader and role model at all times. A high performer, you should be an innovative and forward thinker who excels in the field of fundraising. You will also be able to build and maintain strong strategic partnerships to deliver both business and philanthropic investments.

I wish you well in your application.
