In this episode of The View, Neil Armstrong speaks with Hannah Foster, Chief People Officer for the NHS in Devon, about what modern recruiters can borrow (and adapt) from one of the world’s most complex and mission-driven systems.
Together they dig into how the NHS is navigating extreme pressure by leaning into trust, empowerment, and wellbeing, rather than just metrics. You’ll hear how they’ve built people-centred recruitment strategies under duress – and how those lessons can apply in the private sector: more humane hiring, better data, and building systems that don’t erode the people they serve.
If you lead hiring in high-stakes, high-change environments, this is a chance to hear how a system under strain is still innovating from the inside out – and how we all can raise the bar for recruitment that sustains, not just scales.
