The Public Health Team at Swindon Borough Council is seeking to recruit a Public Health Specialist to work on the Oral Health portfolio for 1 year to agree our strategic direction with the ICB and system partners and to establish oral health improvement programmes.

**Your next role**

As a Public Health Specialist, you will be responsible for providing expertise to protect and improve the population health and wellbeing in relation to oral health. You will work with a range of partners to develop and deliver sector improvement initiatives, using a range of evidence-based public health skills and expertise to ensure our interventions are effective in reducing health inequalities and to deliver our strategic priorities.

- Experience of delivering health promotion initiatives
- Project management experience
- Understanding of local government, NHS, public, voluntary and community sectors
- An understanding of epidemiology and statistics, public health practice, health promotion, health economics and health care evaluation
- Knowledge of oral health is desirable but not essential.
- You must be fluent in the English language (as a requirement of Part 7 of the Immigration Act “for the effective performance of a customer-facing role”)._

This is a hybrid role and you will be required to work at Swindon Council Offices and have the ability to travel throughout the Borough.

**Your next package**

Please see our Rewards and Benefits offer for more details.

As an employee, you will receive a diverse and exciting environment in which to work, encouraging creativity and innovation whilst recognising the need to support ongoing personal development and a flexible work life balance.

For Swindon to thrive in the future, we need to lay the foundations now. It’s why our regeneration and transformation programmes are already underway. So, you’ll be joining us at an exciting time on our journey. We’ll look to you to share your knowledge, influence decisions and drive real, positive change. With your contributions, we’ll achieve our vision of a prosperous, re-vitalised Swindon together. And you’ll be proud to say it was made better with you.
