Jenny joined the NHS in 2000 on the Graduate Management Training Scheme and has worked across many different organisations since, including Ambulance and Commissioning, although mainly in Acute Trusts. She was appointed Group Chief Finance Officer for Manchester University Foundation Trust, the largest Trust in England, in May 2020, following an eight-month period as Deputy Chief Finance Officer. Prior to this role she was Deputy Director of Finance at Leeds Teaching Hospitals, where she had worked since 2014, and had previously been Deputy Director of Finance at Harrogate and District FT for over five years.
She has a family background in the NHS and has always seen the importance and potential power in medical and financial teams working extremely closely to deliver excellent patient care. To that end, over many years, she has delivered local training sessions to higher trainees on how money works in the NHS.
Jenny read Maths at St Anne’s College Oxford and is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy.
