At North Cumbria Integrated Care NHS Foundation Trust (NCIC) things are changing.

These recently appointed roles include a Medical Director – Operational Delivery, Medical Director – Professional Standards, Deputy Medical Director – Workforce, Deputy Medical Director – Patient Safety, Deputy Medical Director – Governance.

These leadership roles will put us firmly on path to becoming truly clinically led, where the quality of patient care is at the heart of our decision making.

These roles are part of a wider structural change that gives clinicians greater responsibility for the services they deliver.

It is an exciting time to join us as we work with the University of Cumbria and Imperial College London to launch the Cumbria Medical School in 2025.

Our vision is to be a leading organisation for medical leadership, education and training.

The Trust currently has a £40m development programme for our West Cumberland Hospital site, and plans for a new £20m Community Diagnostic Centre proposed to open in 2024.

Due to our geography we deliver a broad range of clinical services which are not typically found in other district general hospitals, including interventional cardiology and vascular services.

We are now welcoming applications for the role of Deputy Medical Director – Digital / Chief Clinical Information Officer (CCIO).

The successful postholder will lead the Trust with its use of digital technologies which are fit for the future, providing safer clinical care and enhancing patient safety.

To be successful you will have the skills, energy and enthusiasm to drive the change and innovation to help us deliver the best possible care.

You will act as a bridge to enable colleagues to step into a digital future by role modelling and championing the opportunities.

You will act as a translator between digital and clinical teams and protect patient interests and data. To find out more, or to arrange a conversation with our Executive Medical Director Dr Adrian Clements, please contact either via telephone on or via email through
At NCIC, we have an ambition to deliver outstanding hospital and health services to half a million people.

Established on 1st October 2019, the Trust is creating a centre of excellence in providing rural and remote healthcare and provides a wide range of community and acute services throughout north Cumbria and beyond.

We're responsible for delivering over 70 services across 15 main locations and we employ more than 6,500 members of staff.

Our 5 key principles demonstrate our belief in the delivery of 'safe, high quality care every time'.
Quality and safety at the heart

As an organisation we are serious about supporting a diverse workforce that reflects our local community and are very much focused on being an inclusive and compassionate place to work.

There is an expectation for all staff to support this by familiarising yourself with the Trust's sustainability initiatives such as waste and recycling, going paperless, videoconferencing, sustainable transport and others.
