Liz Ambler

Hospital Director

Liz Ambler joined Practice Plus Group Portsmouth as Hospital Director in January 2023 having spent her entire career in healthcare, public health and social care, including holding a number of senior leadership roles including Executive Director at BMI and Regional Operations Director for the British Pregnancy Advisory Service.

Liz qualified as a nurse in 1995 and went on to work in oncology, haematology and bone marrow transplantation in London and around the world. She has worked in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia, volunteered as a blood safety volunteer in Liberia, and as a Director of Nursing and Quality in a very challenged healthcare system in the Maldives.

Back in the UK Liz held a range of senior leadership roles across a range of organisations including supporting adults and children with learning disabilities and/or autism, adults services, children’s services and education settings.

Having grown up in Portsmouth, she is delighted to have returned ‘home’ 30 years later, and to be leading the team in Portsmouth- a stone’s throw from the hospital she was born in!
