Briefing / Supporting NHS finance leaders
This report summarises the research carried out by the HFMA on behalf of Future-Focused Finance into the obstacles faced by aspiring finance leaders in achieving their career ambitions and the support available for aspiring and current finance leaders. It draws on interviews with aspiring finance leaders, the results of a survey of aspiring and current finance leaders and desk-based research.
Colleagues leading on Future- Focused Finance (FFF) approached the HFMA to carry out this research to help deliver one of the initiatives relating to the Great Place to Work action area. A more detailed version of this report has been delivered to FFF.
The overall purpose is to develop a sustainable programme to support aspiring NHS finance directors and chief finance officers (CFOs) (collectively referred to as finance directors) and creating a talent pool to improve the number and quality of applicants for future NHS finance leadership vacancies.
