We're recruiting on behalf of an NHS client for an experienced and highly organised Business Manager to provide senior-level support directly to the Chief Nursing Officer and the wider Nursing Directorate.

Please note that this role sits firmly in the executive support space - while the title is Business Manager, the responsibilities are more closely aligned with those of a high-level Executive Assistant than a traditional Project Manager.

What you'll be doing:

• Managing the Chief Nursing Officer's diary, priorities, and commitments
• Leading on performance reporting, data analysis, and producing high-quality reports and presentations for senior audiences
• Organising and servicing senior-level meetings, including agenda setting, minutes, and actions
• Supporting service improvement initiatives and monitoring progress against targets
• Overseeing delegated budgets and providing project management support
• Line managing administrative staff within the directorate
• Representing the directorate at internal and external meetings as required
• Handling sensitive and confidential information with the utmost discretion throughout

What we're looking for:

• Degree-level qualification or equivalent experience
• Strong background in business management and performance reporting
• Experience in project management - PRINCE2 or similar is desirable
• Ability to analyse and present complex data confidently
• Advanced MS Office skills, particularly Excel, Word, and PowerPoint
• Line management experience
• Excellent organisational, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills
• Someone who can work autonomously and manage competing priorities with confidence

Why apply?

This is a genuinely interesting and impactful role for someone who thrives in a complex, senior environment and wants to contribute meaningfully to NHS nursing leadership. If you're a polished, proactive, and professional EA or Business Manager looking for your next challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
