We have an exciting opportunity here at West Sussex within our Public Health team, as we are seeking to appoint a Consultant in Public Health who really wants to make a difference in terms of the improvement of the health and wellbeing outcomes of our local people. You will form part of a wider Public Health Consultant team and have generic Public Health Consultant responsibilities agreed with the Director of Public Health, as well as leading on Sexual Health and Health Protection as a specialist area.
**What are we looking for?**

Working to our Director of Public Health, you will have responsibility for the development, implementation and delivery of national, regional and local policies, developing inter-agency and interdisciplinary strategic plans and programmes to deliver key public health targets.

You will provide expert public health advice and leadership to support and inform an evidence-based approach for commissioning and developing high quality equitable services, across primary, secondary and social care, and across sectors including voluntary organisations.

As the post holder, you will develop and utilise information and intelligence systems to underpin public health action across disciplines and organisations, leading collation and interpretation of relevant data in addition to dealing with complex public health issues, advising the Health and Wellbeing Board and making recommendations regarding services, patient care and wider determinants of health. These services will be aimed at keeping people well rather than addressing existing problems. They are universal services that work across all ages and population groups but specifically target people with poorer health outcomes.

As a member of the Public Health Directorate Leadership Team you will contribute to the development and operation of the Council’s strategic direction and support training programmes for Foundation Year Doctors/Specialty Registrars in Public Health, and to the training of practitioners and primary care professionals within the locality.
