Speaking about her appointment, Ms Robinson commented: “Beacon Hospital has a strong established reputation as an excellent patient-centred hospital, and I feel privileged to join the dynamic team. My ambition in the new role is to foster the amazing pool of talent in the hospital to support our ambitious growth plans, as the hospital continues to invest in new technology, services, and people.” The hospital also announced the appointment of Mr Ian O’Keeffe as Chief Financial Officer.
Speaking about both appointments, Mr Michael Cullen, CEO at Beacon Hospital, said: “Bringing a collective
wealth of experience, we’re delighted to add Jacqueline and Ian to our senior management team particularly at this point of growth and expansion for the hospital.
