1Question

Tell me about a time you managed multiple stakeholders including NHS trusts

When managing a £2.1M hospital ward refurbishment, I coordinated with 3 NHS trust departments, 2 design teams, and 4 contractors. The situation required careful scheduling as the ward remained operational throughout. I established weekly stakeholder meetings and created a communication matrix to ensure all parties received relevant updates. I implemented a phased approach, completing work in 6-week sections to maintain patient care continuity. This approach resulted in zero clinical disruption, 98% stakeholder satisfaction scores, and project completion 2 weeks ahead of schedule. The trust subsequently awarded us 2 additional projects worth £1.8M.
2Question

Describe a situation where you had to deliver a project with minimal disruption to live operations

During a critical care unit upgrade worth £950,000, I had to ensure zero interruption to life-support systems and patient monitoring. I developed a detailed risk assessment identifying 12 critical touchpoints and created contingency plans for each. Working with the clinical team, I scheduled work during low-activity periods between 2-6 AM and established a 24-hour communication protocol. I coordinated with facilities management to provide temporary power solutions and backup systems. The project completed successfully with zero clinical incidents, maintaining 100% operational capacity throughout the 8-week programme, earning commendation from the NHS trust board.
