A health trust which employed a convicted armed robber as a director will launch a full investigation into how was given a job.

Last week the Times exclusively reported that Craig Alexander was sacked as interim borough director for NHS Brent after it was revealed he had been jailed for an armed robbery at a Tesco store.

Alexander had been in charge of Brent?s Quality, Innovation, Productivity and Prevention (QIPP) budgets, which according to colleagues earned him up to ?1,000 a day since January last year.

No background checks were carried out and Alexander was allowed to walk into the job after being supplied through a recruitment agency, which the Times can now name as Hunter Healthcare.
