Not-for-profit care group Greensleeves Care has announced that current CFO Chris Doherty will step into the role of acting chief executive.
As CFO, Chris Doherty has overseen Greensleeves’ financial growth and stability. The move follows the recently announced departure of Paul Newman, who is leaving the organisation after over a decade to take up a new role as group chief executive of the Summit and We Care groups.
The recruitment process for a permanent chief executive is underway and is being led by Green Park Executive Search. Greensleeves Care is committed to appointing a leader who will build on its strong foundation and drive its mission of delivering exceptional care for older people.
Chris Doherty said: “I am privileged to have the opportunity to lead Greensleeves Care during this transitional period. I look forward to working closely with our team to maintain our focus on delivering high-quality care and supporting our residents and colleagues.”
Dallas Pounds, chair of the board of trustees, said: “Chris has been part of Greensleeves Care’s success for over ten years and is well-placed to lead the charity as acting CEO. We are also looking forward to welcoming a permanent chief executive to steer us into the future and remain incredibly grateful to Paul for his transformative leadership over the past decade, during which Greensleeves Care has grown into one of the sector’s leading organisations.”
