Welcome to the HFMA's NHS finance staff attitudes survey and thank you for taking the time to provide your response. This survey has been sent to all HFMA members but is also open to non-members who have a professional accountancy qualification or are working towards one. The survey aims to collect data on the training and development, length of service, pay, career path, values and perceptions of all NHS finance staff working across the UK.
The results will be published in a briefing in early 2027 and we will also use the results to influence those responsible for developing and helping to shape the future of the NHS finance function.
All information provided to the HFMA will be treated as confidential and will not be shared with any other organisations at an individual level. You do not need to provide your name or contact details if you do not wish to.
The survey should take around 15 minutes to complete and the deadline for responses is 5pm on Monday 30 November 2026.
We hope to achieve a high response rate and we think the results will be of interest to all NHS finance staff and others. As a thank you for completing the survey we would like to offer you the chance to win a £100 voucher of your choice. If you wish to, please complete your name and contact details and one lucky winner will be selected at random to receive the voucher.
