About the Role
This is not your typical management role.
We are looking for someone who enjoys bringing order to complexity, building trusted relationships and finding practical solutions to difficult challenges. Reporting to the Head of Faculties, you will lead the strategic and operational delivery of three of our six Faculties, working with world leading surgeons and healthcare professionals who generously volunteer their time to advance surgical education and, ultimately, improve patient care across the world.
You will also lead and develop a small, high performing team comprising a Faculty Development Lead, A Faculty Coordinator and shared support from a Coordinator and an Administrator. As a people leader, you will create an environment where colleagues feel supported, empowered and able to do their best work. Balancing day to day operational delivery with longer term development and continuous improvement.
No two days are the same. One morning you might be advising a Faculty Chair on governance matter. By lunchtime
you could be developing a business case for a new educational initiative, supporting your team through a challenging piece of work, or troubleshooting an unexpected operational problem. In the afternoon, you may be leading a cross College project, bringing together colleagues from across departments to deliver a new service, improve member experience or develop innovative ways of supporting our Faculties. Success in this role comes from working collaboratively across the organisation, building strong relationships and bringing people together around shared goals.
This is a role for someone who enjoys variety, thinks strategically but is not afraid to roll up their sleeves, and can switch confidently between coaching a colleague, influencing senior stakeholders, leading collaborative projects and solving practical problems.
You will be joining a supportive leadership team that values curiosity, collaboration and continuous improvement. We believe in giving people the autonomy to lead, the support to develop and the opportunity to shape how our Faculties evolve.
About You
We are looking for someone with sound judgement and a collaborative approach. Rather than having all the answers, we are seeking someone who asks insightful questions, draws on the expertise of others, and helps the team reach the best possible outcomes.
You will be someone who enjoys figuring things out, remains calm when priorities change and is comfortable making decisions in situations where there is not always a clear way forward. You build trust quickly, communicate with tact and diplomacy, and know how to influence without relying on authority.
You will bring experience of leading and developing teams, managing complex stakeholder relationships and delivering projects or services in a professional, membership, healthcare, education or charity environment. We are just as interested in how you work as where you have worked.
We are particularly interested in people who can demonstrate:
· Exceptional relationship building skills and emotional intelligence.
· Experience of leading complex projects involving colleagues from multiple teams, bringing people together to deliver shared outcomes
· A collaborative leadership style that develops people, builds partnerships across teams and brings others with you
· A good understanding of financial management, financial analysis and commercial drivers.
· The ability to assess financial implications and support informed decision making.
· The resilience to remain calm and constructive in complex or sensitive situations.
· Strong problem solving skills and the confidence to make sound decisions.
· The ability to balance competing priorities while maintaining high standards.
· Excellent judgement, tact and diplomacy when working with senior professionals and volunteers.
· Change leadership and organisational development
· A collaborative leadership style that develops people and brings others with you.
· Curiosity, adaptability and a genuine desire to continuously improve services.
· Experience of working in an intercultural context would be a useful advantage.
If you have read this advert and are excited by the opportunity but do not meet every single criterion, we would still encourage you to apply. We know that great people do not always tick every box, and we are committed to supporting talented individuals to grow into the role.
What matters most is your attitude, values and potential. We are looking for someone who is curious, resilient, adaptable and motivated by making a difference.
Looking to the Future
As our Faculties continue to evolve, so too does our approach to supporting them. We are actively developing the capabilities of our team to ensure we can deliver increasingly innovative, insight driven and member focused services.
Alongside the core skills and experience needed for this role, you will have the opportunity to develop expertise in areas such as:
· AI literacy and practical application of emerging technologies
· Workflow automation and process improvement
· Data visualisation, using insight to support decision making
· Service design and continuous improvement
· Systems thinking and designing sustainable solutions
You do not need to be an expert in all of these areas from day one. What matters most is your curiosity, willingness to learn and enthusiasm for helping shape the future of the Faculties function.
Please note that we do not accept CVs and agencies need not apply.
To be a strong voice for our family of members, developing their careers, upholding standards, and promoting patient safety globally.
