New chief executive sought for Hywel Dda University Health Board
The health board is inviting outstanding leaders to apply for the substantive Chief Executive post.
The role has been held on an interim basis by Professor Phil Kloer, who was appointed pending the appointment of the health board’s new Chair.
Dr Neil Wooding, Hywel Dda UHB Chair, explains: “The appointment of a Chief Executive Officer is an important part of discharging the role of health board Chair and is critical for the future success of an organisation. Now that I have been in post for a few months and have come to understand the needs of the organisation, I am keen to progress quickly with the appointment to the pivotal role and ensure stable leadership following a time of change at Board level.
“I look forward to receiving applications from qualified and experienced leaders who are passionate about improving the health and well-being of our patients, staff, and our broader communities in mid and west Wales. We have a clear strategy at Hywel Dda of moving from a system that treats illness to one that promotes health and keeps people well for longer, and is underpinned by a commitment to ensure that our health and care services are safe, accessible, sustainable, and kind.
“Hywel Dda is a fantastic organisation, with a dedicated team of over 13,000 staff. Similar to other boards and trusts in the NHS, Hywel Dda faces a number of challenges that will require substantial change to ensure the sustainability of its services and a secure financial position. As a Board, we are seeking a leader who can help us to navigate through these challenging times and do so with a clear and engaging vision, robust leadership, and a commitment to upholding our values.
“This is an exciting and important role based in a beautiful area of Wales. The successful applicant will, together with our partners and community, play a vital part in shaping the health and well-being of generations to come. I look forward to working with them to deliver a sustainable future for Hywel Dda University Health Board.”
