Who we are

King George and Queen’s Hospitals Charity supports the patients, families, staff, and communities connected to King George Hospital in Ilford and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We fund initiatives that go above and beyond what the NHS can provide – from innovative medical equipment and patient comfort to staff well-being and pioneering projects.

Now entering a new chapter, we are transitioning from an NHS-managed charity to an independent NHS Charity, with our own Board of Trustees and Chair, while maintaining a close and collaborative partnership with Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust (BHRUT). With a committed Board-in-waiting, an ambitious vision, and strong community backing, we are ready to grow our fundraising impact and enhance our support to the Trust and the wider communities we serve.

About the role

We’re seeking an experienced interim CEO to lead the launch and early development of our newly independent charitable incorporated organisation (CIO). This is a rare chance to shape a start-up charity with an established record of fundraising success and strong community backing.

You’ll bring leadership, drive and credibility, and be comfortable working at pace to build solid foundations and shape strategy, operations and culture. Working closely with the Chair and Trustees, and leading a small team, you’ll ensure fundraising is sustained and grown, and that resources deliver tangible health and well-being improvements.

A skilled relationship-builder, you’ll maintain a strong partnership with BHRUT and expand support across our community, NHS partners and funders. This role suits a hands-on, confident leader, ideally with experience of setting up or scaling a charity, who balances operational focus with emotional intelligence and a deep belief in the role of NHS charities.

 Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for a confident, values-led leader to provide strategic and operational direction through a key period of transition. With a steady hand and senior-level leadership experience, ideally including charity start-up or growth, you’ll understand what’s needed to lead in a fast-moving, evolving environment.

You’ll be comfortable managing complexity, combining clear purpose with sound judgement and strong interpersonal skills. You’ll work closely with our new Board, Chair and Trust leadership, while representing the charity externally with confidence and warmth.

In a small and ambitious team, you’ll be practical and hands-on, guiding delivery while shaping strategy. You’ll bring a solid grasp of governance, a commitment to inclusive culture, and a strong sense of purpose. Above all, you’ll believe in the mission of NHS charities, and have the experience and resilience to help us bring this new chapter to life.
