We have a rich heritage and an ambitious vision for the future of our patients and local communities.

With our partners, Imperial College London, and The Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust, we form Imperial College Academic Health Science Centre, one of 6 academic health science centres in the UK, working to ensure the rapid translation of research for better patient care and excellence in education.

We are proud of our heritage in innovation and we are early adopters of new insights in technologies, techniques and treatments for improving health., An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced manager to join Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust\'s Stroke & Neuroneses Directorate as Business Manager. We are a regional neuroscience centre providing emergency and planned inpatient and outpatient care for a population of over two million across north west London. Our services span the full pathway - from hyper-acute stroke through to specialist neurology clinics.

Based primarily at Charing Cross Hospital, the directorate is home to one of London\'s Hyper Acute Stroke Units (HASU), delivering rapid assessment, 24/7 thrombolysis (\'clot-busting\') and access to advanced imaging and vascular, neurosurgical and neuroradiological interventions.

Our neurology service provides both emergency and elective care across subspecialties such as multiple sclerosis, movement disorders, epilepsy, neuro-otology, headache, cognition and memory, neuromuscular disease and more. As part of a comprehensive stroke pathway, patients may receive mechanical clot retrieval (thrombectomy) where appropriate, in partnership with interventional neuroradiology.
