Public health and social care providers face multiple challenges – from changing policy landscapes, an ageing population and funding restraints exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic. They are also expected to have more inclusive workforces, with pressure to diversify their senior leadership teams to be more reflective of the communities they serve.
Our executive and non-executive searches for full-time and interim positions broaden an organisation’s leadership profile. Aligned to this, our diversity & inclusion, learning & development, and people solutions consultancy services help our clients to build the capabilities, infrastructure and processes necessary to drive inclusivity and productivity and achieve sustainable change.
Our clients include public health, local and central government sectors and social care, as well as charities and trusts that partner with local authorities. We also support medical research and housing associations where they overlap with health and societal improvement.
Our well-established approach to interviewing and cultural testing, along with identifying key technical skills, is the backbone of long-term client relationships. Our unique and innovative search process, from briefing to interviewing, gives clients confidence that they are selecting from the deepest talent pool. And we are not afraid to challenge a client’s processes in order to improve their approach to inclusivity without compromising on candidate quality.
We understand the recruitment challenges clients face and know the right questions to ask candidates. We source candidates who have an evident aptitude for improving community engagement displayed in their career choices and experiences. Our data-led approach is built on fifteen years of proactively mapping leadership talent across the public, private and third sectors. This enables us to find candidates that might not ordinarily have been on a client’s radar, by identifying other areas where their scarce skills may be found.
The team’s cross-functional configuration combines experience from public and private sectors, particularly in support of the drive by health and social care providers towards greater digitalisation. We have a strong track record for placing candidates from outside the sector, particularly for trustee positions.
"Harry and Green Park have provided us with superb support in recruiting management-team level executive posts, helping us secure diverse, high quality short-lists of candidates and managing the process extremely smoothly."

"Raj and his team are genuinely looking to drive change - and they really seem to care. Green Park has placed me on two interim assignments so far, both of which have been right up my alley. It's been a genuine pleasure doing business with them!"

I was first introduced to Green Park through my appointment as a Trustee of Citizens Advice. Green Park led the recruitment and I really enjoyed my experience of working with the team. They are professional and knowledgeable and take time to build relationships with candidates. I felt fully supported throughout the process.
