We are pleased to share that Group Chief Executive, Professor Karen Dunderdale, has been named in the HSJ Top 50 Chief Executives in the NHS. 👏

The HSJ Top 50 is an annual, independently compiled list which recognises NHS leaders who are making a significant impact across the service. Rankings are informed by a range of factors, including organisational performance, leadership during periods of challenge, contribution to system working, and feedback from peers and national stakeholders.

This recognition reflects Karen’s leadership and the progress being made across our organisation. It also acknowledges the collective contribution of colleagues across all services, whose continued commitment and professionalism underpin our achievements.

Under Karen’s leadership, there has been a strong focus on improving patient care, supporting staff and strengthening collaboration across our Group and wider system. This recognition highlights both the impact of that leadership and the work taking place across our teams every day.

Please join us in congratulating Karen on this well-deserved achievement.
