Are you a senior finance professional looking for a values-driven leadership role in a pioneering GP partnership?

We're looking for a qualified and experienced Finance Director to join our leadership team at Bromley by Bow Health Partnership (BBBHP). This is a new role, spanning strategic leadership and operational management, offering the opportunity to shape and mature the financial governance, planning, and operations of our innovative, community-focused organisation.

About Us

Bromley by Bow Health Partnership is a four-site GP partnership. We work to create healthy communities, together with local partner organisations here in Tower Hamlets, employing over 200 staff across our 4 sites and have over 50,000 registered patients. We are co-located with the Bromley by Bow Centre charity. With them and other partners, we meet people's needs through an integrated population health model designed to address the clinical, psychological and social determinants of health.

We have been an international influencer of health policy and play a leading role in our local Primary Care Network. We pioneered social prescribing nationally and we have trained many of the country's Social Prescribing Link Workers while inspiring many others inside and outside the NHS.

About the Role

As Finance Director, you will:
• Lead on financial strategy, governance, planning and reporting;
• Support the Partnership Board, Finance Subcommittee, Local Operating Boards and Executive Director with high-quality financial insights and planning;
• Oversee financial compliance and risk mitigation aligned with NHS, CQC and regulatory standards;
• Drive forward value for money, financial sustainability, and service efficiency;
• Support business development, contract negotiations, and wider corporate services including HR, IT, Estates, and Information Governance;
• Foster financial upskilling across clinical and non-clinical teams;
• Provide leadership in modernising systems, processes and reporting.

This is a hands-on leadership role ideal for someone who enjoys working closely with people and making a real difference in their organisation and community.

Who We're Looking For

We're seeking a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with:
• A strong commitment to social justice, inclusion and creating healthy communities;
• A collaborative, people-centred approach to leadership
• Demonstratable experience in senior leadership and financial management;
• Experience in change management and organisational development;
• A track record of financial transformation and systems implementation.

You'll thrive in our values-led, partnership culture and be excited to join a team that blends professionalism with purpose.

Why Join Us
• Work for a pioneering, mission-led organisation that's nationally recognised for its innovation and impact;
• To increase our impact by leading our journey to greater financial sustainability;
• To develop our corporate services, so they become more efficient and effective in supporting our larger organisation;
• To support committed locally-raised employees, many of who are impressive exemplars of social mobility

We are committed to creating an inclusive workplace and welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from black candidates, who are currently under-represented in the senior leadership team.

We are happy to discuss reasonable adjustments needed throughout the recruitment process and in the workplace.
