Welcome to Ann Hepworth, our next Director of Strategy and Partnerships
We’re delighted to announce that Ann Hepworth will be joining us next month as our Director of Strategy and Partnerships.
Welcoming her appointment, Matthew Trainer, our Chief Executive, said: “We are very pleased to have attracted someone with Ann’s breadth of experience and knowledge of the NHS. She will drive the work we are doing with our partners in health and social care, helping us work more closely together to deliver better care to our residents.”
Ann is an experienced healthcare leader who has spent most of her career in London. Her understanding of organisational development, population health, and system improvement will provide a great background for her new role at our Trust. She also has experience in both provider and commissioning organisations at a local, regional, and national level. She was, most recently, Director of System Improvement at NHS London.
Ann has a real passion to reduce health inequalities, and this has been helped by her experiences when she oversaw the Impact Programme which was a part of the London Vaccine Programme.
Reacting to her appointment, Ann said: “I am excited by the new ideas and fresh thinking emerging from the Trust. We have some real opportunities to better meet the needs of our population and to be a great partner in north east London.”
