An opportunity to make a real difference Photography by Roy Riley Hospice
Dear Candidate,
Thank you for your interest in joining Rowcroft Hospice.
Few privileges are greater than being there for people at some of the most challenging times in their lives, providing the specialist care, compassion and support patients and those closest to them need.
That is what Rowcroft does every day across South Devon. And our ambition is not simply to maintain this care, but to reach more people, continue to enhance the services we provide and ensure we are here for our community for generations to come.
To achieve this, we need to think differently.
Like many charities, we face increasing demand, rising costs and growing pressure on our resources. Yet we also have extraordinary opportunities to transform how we work, embrace new technologies and make much better use of the time, talents and resources available to us.
We believe that by fundamentally rethinking how we operate, simplifying our processes and embracing the opportunities presented by automation and artificial intelligence, we can deliver even more for the people who depend on us.
That is why we are creating this exciting new role.
We are looking for someone with the experience, imagination and determination to challenge conventional thinking and help us redesign how Rowcroft works. Someone who can look beyond the way things have always been done, recognise opportunities others might miss and, critically, turn ideas into measurable and lasting improvements.
This is not about tinkering around the edges or simply introducing new technology. It is about understanding what really adds value, removing unnecessary complexity and creating smarter, more effective ways of working across our organisation.
Reporting directly to the Chief Executive, you will have the opportunity to influence change across every part of Rowcroft, working alongside talented and committed colleagues who share a common purpose. You will have the support to challenge established practices, develop innovative solutions and see those changes through to delivery.
You may come from the commercial sector, technology, consultancy, healthcare, financial services or another industry entirely. What matters is your proven ability to deliver significant transformation, your willingness to roll up your sleeves and your ability to bring people with you.
And while the challenge is substantial, so too is the opportunity.
Every process we simplify, every inefficiency we remove and every pound we use more effectively creates the opportunity to invest more in the specialist care and support our community needs.
Of course, how we achieve this is equally important. Rowcroft is built on strong values, and we want someone who combines commercial thinking and ambition with integrity, compassion and respect for the people who make our organisation so special.
This is an opportunity to use your expertise to deliver something genuinely meaningful: helping us build a stronger, more innovative and sustainable hospice, while enabling us to care for more people, in more ways, for many years to come.
If that kind of challenge excites you, I would love to hear from you.
Accessibility information At Rowcroft Hospice, we believe everyone should feel welcome, valued and able to be themselves. We are committed to creating an inclusive and accessible workplace where diversity is celebrated, everyone is treated with dignity and respect, and individuals have the opportunity to thrive.
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, experiences and abilities, recognising the different perspectives and talents they bring to our hospice.
We are committed to fair and inclusive recruitment and will work with candidates to make reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process and, where appropriate, in the workplace. Inclusion is an ongoing journey, and we will continue to listen, learn and improve to ensure Rowcroft is a place where everyone feels they belong.
