**Overview**:
**Do you develop evidence based and innovative public health projects and evaluate your work?**

**Do you have a track record of working in partnership across organisations to make changes, find solutions and make a difference for local populations?**

Buckinghamshire Council is looking for a Public Health Practitioner to join its Public Health team.

**Contract: 1 year fixed term contract/secondment until April 2025**

**About us**:
Buckinghamshire Council is a relatively new organisation that combines the strengths and expertise of the previous five councils in the county to create positive change for local people, communities, and businesses. We are firmly focused on the future and have made a clear commitment to serve residents better and to provide stronger representation for Buckinghamshire, both locally and nationally.

The Council is an innovative and high performing organisation, and public health is embedded in the council’s core business.

Buckinghamshire is generally more affluent and as a result has better health outcomes than the national average. There are however significant inequalities across the County, and the population is ageing.

**About the role**:
We are looking to recruit a one year fixed term Public Health Practitioner who will develop and deliver an effective range of public health programmes in the following lead areas:

- Sexual and Reproductive Health and Drugs and Alcohol, which will involve supporting the implementation of the following multi agency strategies - Buckinghamshire Sexual and Reproductive Health Strategy 2024 - 2029 and the Buckinghamshire Drugs and Alcohol Strategy 2023 - 2028.

You will also be willing and able to change your work areas according to the needs of the Public Health Department.

The post will work with other local authority services areas, other service providers both in the NHS and voluntary and community sector, Office for Health Improvement and Disparities and other relevant national and area leads to maximise health improvement and reduce inequalities in health.

The post will be managed by a Public Health Principal and be part of a team of Public Health Practitioners.

Any-Desk:
As an ‘any-desk’ worker, you’ll need to be connected to our network to access digital folders and resources, but this can either be from home or an office location when required. You will be required to work from the office a couple of times a week, depending on your role and team requirements.

**About you**:
We offer flexible working and opportunities for continuing professional development, including support to work towards registration on the UK Public Health Register as a Public Health Practitioner.

For full details about the role, please see job summary attached.

**Other information**:
**The provisional date for interviews is week commencing 26**th** February 2024.**

If you would like to discuss the role in more detail, please contact:
