Each year, we provide care through more than 641,000 patient visits, supported by over 6,000 colleagues delivering world class care, specialist treatment and pioneering research. Our research spans some of the most important areas in women's and children's healthcare, including gynaecology, maternity care, neonatal and fetal medicine, genomics, rare diseases and complex childhood conditions.

We are home to internationally recognised research programmes and leading teaching centres, with a strong commitment to education, collaboration and innovation.

We are seeking to appoint a Clinical Director of Research and Innovation to lead, shape and deliver an ambitious vision for research, innovation and improvement across BWC. This senior leadership role will provide strategic direction for research and innovation across the Trust, ensuring the delivery of high quality, impactful research that improves outcomes for women, children and families.

As Clinical Director of Research and Innovation, you will champion an inclusive research culture, strengthen academic and innovation capability, and translate discovery into meaningful improvements in care and patient experience. This role is central to growing our national and international research profile whilst developing the next generation of researchers and innovators across the organisation.

The successful candidate will be an established researcher or innovator with senior leadership experience gained within healthcare, academia or another research-intensive environment. A proven track record of research excellence, academic credibility and influence at organisational and system level, along with a strong understanding of research and innovation across healthcare and commercial settings.

Experience of setting strategic direction and delivering transformational change within complex stakeholder environments is required, together with a demonstrable ability to lead, mentor and develop researchers and innovators.

Demonstrated success in developing collaborative partnerships across the NHS, academia and external organisations, with the ability to engage effectively with patients, clinicians, academics and industry partners.

The ideal candidate will be committed to promoting an inclusive, values led culture that supports collaboration, innovation and excellence.

Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation Trust is the first of its type in the UK. Our Trust was formed in February 2017 to drive forward our commitment to provide the highest quality, world-class physical and mental health care for our women, children and families. Uniting our hospitals means more seamless care; more investment to make greater advances in our specialist treatment and world-leading neo-natal and fetal work. Importantly, it also gives us a greater voice in shaping the future of family-centred care.

Birmingham Children's Hospital is a UK leading specialist paediatric centre with an international reputation in several areas.

Birmingham Women's Hospital is one of two dedicated women's hospitals in the UK, with the busiest single site maternity unit, delivering more than 8,200 babies a year offering a full range of gynaecological, maternity and neonatal care.

Our Trust is committed to creating the best place to work. We believe in promoting and enhancing inclusion, diversity and equality and encourage applications from all areas of the community, who meet the criteria for the role, regardless of age, gender identity, disability, race, religion or sexual orientation.
