Daniel Scheffer
Group Chief Corporate Affairs Officer and Company Secretary
Daniel was appointed as Group Chief Corporate Affairs Officer and Company Secretary on 1 November 2024. He joined LUHFT in January 2021 as Director of Corporate Affairs / Company Secretary and joined Liverpool Women’s NHS Foundation Trust in a joint role from June 2024.
Following a successful career in high street and private banking in the UK, and further afield, Daniel chose to make the move into the civil service. From an initial role in the NHS South East regional office he moved into a number of roles in Whitehall. These included working in the private office of a number of Health Ministers and latterly as the Ambulance Policy lead for England. His time in Whitehall was pivotal in cementing his desire to work in the NHS.
Daniel took on challenging operational roles in the NHS in Cumbria, gradually building expertise in organisational governance. He left the NHS in Cumbria as a trusted Company Secretary, with a strong track record of supporting organisational culture change.
His previous experience of building high performing and happy teams is something he seeks to bring to his role at LUHFT.
