We're taking a break over the summer, and re-releasing some of our most popular episodes. This one is with Sarah-Jane Marsh, CEO of Birmingham Women's and Children's Hospital.

Sarah-Jane joined the NHS via the Graduate Management Scheme. Appointed Chief Operating Officer at Birmingham Children’s Hospital in December 2007, and Chief Executive just over a year later, whilst still only 32, the Trust has been under her leadership for 12 years and was named ‘Provider Trust of the Year’ by the Health Service Journal in 2015.

In 2015, Sarah-Jane took on the additional role of Chief Executive of Birmingham Women’s, before going on to integrate the two Trusts to create the first Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust in Europe in little more than 18 months. In 2016, Sarah-Jane was asked to head-up the NHS England Maternity Transformation Programme.

More recently, she was asked by the Government to lead the testing aspect of their Covid-19 'Test and Trace' programme.
