Alison Marquis has been appointed to the newly created post of Deputy Chief Officer of the St John Ambulance & Rescue Service LBG (SJARS).
Mrs Marquis’ principal role is to deputise for the Chief Officer and assist and support the Board of SJARS in providing efficient and effective ambulance, rescue and community services throughout the Bailiwick of Guernsey. She will also support the Chief Officer on strategic and policy issues, providing leadership and management skills to ensure the delivery of the highest levels of patient care, pre-hospital medical treatment and rescue and community services.
Mrs Marquis joined SJARS in 2006 as its first female senior manager with a non-ambulance service background, which was fairly groundbreaking for the organisation at the time. Here she was responsible for organisational development and human resources (HR) as well as heading up the community, support and fund raising activities for SJARS.
In 2012, following personal development with the Association of Ambulance Chief Executive’s National Ambulance Resilience Unit in strategic command and leadership, she was promoted to Assistant Chief Officer taking on responsibility for the delivery of emergency ambulance services.
Prior to joining SJARS she was deputy director of HR for the Health and Social Services Department.
