Strategic Development Advisor (0.4 FTE)

Health Sciences University

12 months fixed term

The Health Sciences University (HSU: formerly AECC University College) is a specialist health sciences institution dedicated to excellent education, clinical care and applied research.

Following the recent approval of our new university title HSU in July 2024 and the merger of the University College of Osteopathy into the HSU family from 1st August 2024, the institution is in a phase of growth and transformation across our campuses in Bournemouth and central London. 

We are highly values-driven, inspired by our mission to ‘create a healthier society through education, research and clinical care’ with highly dedicated and capable staff and students working together within a caring and inclusive community. We are part-way through the delivery of our Strategic Plan 2021-2026, entitled Fit for the Future, which we will refresh in the coming weeks to reflect recent institutional changes.

HSU delivers a diverse and growing portfolio of pre- and post-registration academic provision and research in allied health and related disciplines, and substantial CQC-registered clinical and imaging services delivering high quality care for our staff, students and local communities. These facilities create a unique offering in higher education for our students to gain valuable practice learning experience onsite, to support local and regional NHS partners, and provide a data-rich research environment for our students, staff and partners.

Partnership working sits at the heart of what we do as an agile and collaborative higher education provider and clinical provider, responding to the workforce, educational and clinical needs of our external stakeholders, and supporting our communities as an established anchor institution. As we continue to develop in Dorset and London, it is imperative that we develop a more strategically informed approach to partnership working as a multi-professional centre of excellence for healthcare education, clinical care and research locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.

We are delighted to advertise the role of part-time Strategic Partnerships Advisor for a 12-month period to provide high-level strategic support and guidance to the institution during this intense period of transition and transformation. The postholder will work closely with the Vice-Chancellor and other key senior staff in an advisory capacity as we reset the strategic vision and plan.

About the person

You will be a politically astute and emotionally intelligent individual with significant experience as a senior healthcare leader in relevant professional disciplines. You will have highly developed networks and an excellent understanding of current healthcare sector issues and challenges, including those in which an engaged local university can become involved with and make a difference.

You will be a strategic thinker, capable of supporting and advising HSU senior leaders as the organisation continues to develop and grow to help us drive our own economic development and business growth. You will have a track record of leading and influencing others at a system level, developing and nurturing important relationships.

Whether engaging with internal or external stakeholders, it is critical that your values and behaviours align to those of HSU: caring, professional, passionate, inclusive; and collaborative.

You will be a confident and flexible leader, who understands the need to empower others and work collaboratively within and across a specialist university environment.
