The Trust is currently implementing a reconfiguration of its service provision that includes significant changes to its estate and its contracted services. The post holder has a lead role in supporting the reconfiguration activities and working with the Contract Partners to adapt their service provisions. These activities will include the exit of current PFI Partners and transition of services to CHS, and the hand back of assets and the close out of current PFI contract arrangements.
