Self-management/stop Smoking Lead

5 months ago

London, United Kingdom Whittington Health NHS Trust Full time

Whittington Health's Self-Management Service and the City & Hackney stop smoking service support people to improve their health through changing their behaviour. The services are well-established and are well-loved by service users, commissioners and the local community.

We are looking for someone to provide strategic leadership for the two services. The post holder will be expected to manage the contracts and any sub-contracts, manage the budgets and support the team and the various partners to achieve the contract targets. Each service employs a service manager who handles the day-to-day management of the service and supports the lead, where possible.

This postholder provides operational management and strategic leadership for two Adult Community services, the Self-Management & Behaviour Change Service and the stop smoking service.

The Self-Management & Behaviour Change Service is funded by the London Boroughs of Islington and Haringey to run the Expert Patient Programme and several locally-designed self-management programmes plus delivering training to Haringey and Islington professionals (the Advanced Development Programme)

LB Hackney and the Corporation of London fund the City and Hackney stop smoking service (Smokefree City & Hackney). Whittington Health is the lead provider for this contract, which includes running clinics, promoting the service and providing stop smoking training.

The post holder will be the main point of contact with commissioners, ensuring that both services meet their contractual targets. Should the possibility of tendering for a new contract arise, the post holder - with support from the Contracts Lead - will lead for the service/s on the bid-writing.

Whittington Health serves a richly diverse population and works hard to ensure that all our services are fair and equally accessible to everyone. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the way we look after our staff. We aim to employ a workforce which is as representative as possible of this population, so we are open to the value of differences in age, disability, gender, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, sexual orientation, and religion or belief. The Trustbelieves that as a public sector organisation we have an obligation to have recruitment, training, promotion and other formal employment policies and procedures that are sensitive to these differences. We think that by doing so, we are better able to treat our patients as well as being a better place to work.
