They will embed and champion co-production and service-user involvement in all aspects of service development.
  • As a system leader, they will develop excellent and productive working relationships with partners from the Integrated Care System, Criminal Justice System as well as with service users and providers from the NHS, private, voluntary and community sectors.

  • To deputise for the Assistant Director, Public Health and represent the client positively at a range of internal and external meetings with senior stakeholders, including regionally and nationally and with other agencies, including other Local Authorities, Clinical Commissioners and NHS Trusts, working together to improve services and deliver key objectives.
  • To be an active member of the Public Health Directorate and to support Assistant Directors in the leadership and management of the service.
  • To ensure that all commissioned services deliver a person centred approach that engages individuals in their own treatment and care, promotes independence, choice and control and puts dignity at the heart of care and support.
  • To ensure that patients and the public are involved in the commissioning cycle so that their views and experiences lead to better decision about the design, improvement, integration and modernisation of local services.
