GENERAL MANAGER
-Community Service
-Change Implementation
-18 Month Contract. Market $<
The Hibiscus Coast Hospice Trust is seeking a widely experienced General Manager with significant change management experience to lead the organisation to its next service level. The Trust, which has been providing community based palliative care services to the terminally ill and their families for nearly 20 years, recently opened a new $7m, Whangaparoa facility to extend its services to 24/7 inpatient hospice care. Opening of the Hospice is planned for 12 months’ time once the Ministry of Health approvals and funding arrangements are completed.
Present services are provided by an 18 strong, high quality team of specialist nurses, shop managers and finance and administration staff supported by more than 300 volunteers and a very committed and experienced team of Trustees. The role includes oversight of clinical services which are managed, day-to-day by a full-time Nurse Manager, but the focus of the position will be on maintaining and growing the business activities of the Trust, improving shop revenues, fundraising and business profitability to support the extended services.
It is expected that this opportunity will have considerable appeal to a widely experienced General Manager who is at a career point where he/she would like to contribute their skills to a very satisfying and highly valued community service. In addition to broad general management competencies the manager will need strong leadership and interpersonal skills, relationship management and networking skills with volunteers and community groups, experience in dealing and negotiating with Government Departments and a willingness to make contact with, and present to, a wide range of community based support organisations. Health sector experience is not regarded as a prerequisite.
To progress this opportunity please email confidential applications to barry@broadway.co.nz or phone Barry Kington, Director, Broadway People Ltd on 09 308 9333.
