NHS Business Manager/Executive Assistant

Huntress - Maidstone • Temporary • Worthing, West Sussex, England, United Kingdom • £20.44 - £24.61 / hour • 6d ago

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.
