THE fall will be as swift as the rise was gradual in the career of Julia Bridgewater at the University Hospital of North Staffordshire.

Within just two weeks of announcing her resignation, she will leave the post of chief executive it took 28 years to reach.

Yet the mother-of-three had to be persuaded in October 2006 to take the helm of one of Britain's biggest hospitals. The previous year she had reluctantly agreed to be its acting chief executive at the height of the trust's last financial meltdown.

She plugged the gap left by the unexpected departure of troubleshooter Antony Sumara who had been sent in by the Government to tackle the spiralling debts.
