2. Foreword from
Neil Fineberg
Chief Executive
At Finegreen, we understand that sound
management and inspirational leadership
are fundamental building blocks for
successful, high quality health services.
I’m very proud to say that we have recently
celebrated our 10th anniversary. Looking
back over Finegreen’s first ten years, three key
themes emerge time and again. These are the
‘3-Rs’ – relationships, resilience and relevance.
Relationships, because we have worked very hard to
understand, and meet, the detailed needs of clients and
candidates alike – so that we can help both find the tightest possible fit.
Resilience, because we have weathered storms such as the deepest ever economic
recession – and emerged stronger than ever. And relevance, as we have kept ahead of
changes in the needs of the health sector – including the growing clamour for excellent
leadership and workforce development in the NHS - against the background of
unprecedented financial constraints.
This is an approach which has seen Finegreen go from
strength to strength since our inception in 2005 – now
providing nationwide coverage from our offices based
in Manchester and London. We pride ourselves on our
in-depth knowledge and expertise. We also understand
the importance of building longstanding relationships
with both our candidates and our clients.
With over 12 years’ experience recruiting senior
professionals into the Healthcare market in particular,
I have been both delighted and proud to see how many
of the candidates I have personally assisted go on to
build highly successful careers in their chosen fields.
Candidates and clients who know us
well continue to use our services on a
regular basis - which is why our business continues to
grow and expand.
I sincerely hope you choose to partner with Finegreen
when you need to recruit - or indeed are considering
your next career move - as my team and I would be
delighted to assist you.
Here’s to the next ten years – and thank you to every-
one who has played a part in Finegreen’s success story.

management and reporting are essential for the provision of a high quality Healthcare system.
Our highly trained consultants are fully equipped to deliver an outstanding service to surpass

market. This is achieved through our expert understanding of the cycles and pressures placed
upon the NHS and Private Healthcare finance functions.

past three years, particularly with the growing use of Executive Advisors -
generally former Healthcare CEOs. Having been successful appointing the full range of
Healthcare Board appointments such as CEO, FD, COO etc. our reputation in this market is
continuing to grow rapidly.

Clinical Services
Established in 2011, the Clinical Services division is one of our fastest growing
areas and was created to satisfy the increase in demand for clinically registered leaders in both
the NHS and Private Healthcare.
We supply a broad range of candidates currently registered across Nursing, Midwifery, AHPs,
Doctors, Healthcare Scientists and Social Care. Our clients benefit from working with a highly
experienced and knowledgeable team of consultants who truly understand their market and
deliver a high quality service designed to meet their needs.
Commissioning
The introduction of new health and social care legislation - and subsequent formation of new
organisations and structures, such as Clinical Commissioning Groups and Commissioning
Support Units – has generated a rapidly growing market for both candidates and clients.
Our specialist consultants work alongside a wide range of commissioning-focused
organisations - by supplying mid to senior / executive experienced candidates, on either an
interim, contract or permanent basis.
Corporate Affairs
Corporate governance frameworks are vital components of public bodies. They let the
public know that an organisation is well-managed and ensure that the business they conduct
is transparent.
Focusing on mid to senior executive level skills, our specialist consultants offer
comprehensive advice to both clients and candidates across a broad spectrum of Corporate
Affairs disciplines.
This includes everything from NHS Trusts to central and local government bodies.

Management
Procurement & Supply Chain
NHS providers spend over £17bn each year on goods and services - using a range of
procurement routes. In the current difficult financial climate, there is a constant demand for
experienced procurement specialists to assist in cost reduction and efficiency programmes.
We regularly source and supply Managers and Executives to Director level and recruit for a
wide variety of organisations linked to procurement within the Healthcare sector.
Project / Programme Management
Project & Programme Managers are currently in great demand. We are able to source skilled
people in this field - the majority of whom are PRINCE2 or MSP (Managing Successful
Programmes) qualified.
Amongst the skills on offer are project planning – in pursuit of key strategic objectives
– along with support for organisational development, finance, workforce development and
marketing management across the organisation – for both NHS and Private Sector
Healthcare clients.

Health
Public Health
Our specialist Public Health team is able to source and supply candidates with experience in
developing policies, administering services, implementing educational programmes and
conducting research.
With the recent shift in public health responsibilities between the NHS and local authorities,
our contacts and track record in this specialist field is proving to be valuable for clients and
candidates alike.
Strategy & Change
Major changes in the health sector - arising largely from political and economic reforms
- are driving strategic transformation programmes, designed to improve organisations’
transparency, accountability and performance.
Finegreen regularly help clients to identify interim managers able to deliver multiple
corporate objectives on time and within budget.
Among areas where experienced interims can make significant contributions are - Strategy,
