This is the latest in a series of interviews with provider chief executives, which are available exclusively to HSJ Insight subscribers.
Glen Burley heads up three acute trusts in the west Midlands – South Warwickshire Foundation Trust, Wye Valley Trust and George Eliot Trust – which together constitute one of the first provider groups in the NHS.
He began his career as a finance trainee in the 1980s, rising through the management ranks at various Warwickshire hospitals before becoming CEO at SWFT in 2008.
He speaks to HSJ about hospital group models, tackling the workforce and integration challenges facing the NHS, and the optimal configuration of urgent and elective services.
