Job summary

This is a new role within the People and Workforce team in the Integrated Care Board for Herefordshire and Worcestershire. The ICB oversees the Integrated Care System (ICS) which brings together the organisations providing health and social care services to patients and residents within our counties.

Operating across our Integrated Care System, you will work closely with the HR teams within the organisations across the system. You will understand the people and workforce development needs of those organisations and where a system based approach will support the work that they are doing. Linking closely with the workforce planning function, you will analyse where people-based approaches need to change to ensure we have the right people with the right skills in the right places across the system to deliver the best patient and social care services possible within Herefordshire and Worcestershire.

Main duties of the job

You will work with your team to develop and deliver system-agreed approaches to amplify the efforts of individual organisations, create economies of scale and provide best in class people and workforce development. The team deliver a range of activity from attraction andrecruitment into the system, retention activities including wellbeing initiatives and developing a system-wide occupational health service, training and leadership interventions as well as leading and managing the ICS Academy (a virtual learning and collaboration space).

You will also deputise for the Director of People and Workforce across national, regional and system-wide meetings, so will be knowledgeable with understanding the broader people agenda across the system. You will be comfortable with making sense of workforce data and being able to articulate the system-wide position on substantive and temporary staff, being comfortable with the range of lenses through which this can be viewed. You will have the credibility to work with a range of senior stakeholders and be a trusted coach and confidante. Your experience as a business partner, translating organisational need into solutions willenable you to gather information quickly, work confidently with the most senior people across our system and deliver collective solutions to time and budget.

About us

By operating as an ICS we aim to break down siloes between organisations so that people receive care centred around their needs, regardless of the organisation providing it. We also aim to reduce health inequalities across our geography, ensuring that the same quality of care is available to all. The People and Workforce team in the ICB bring together people teams across the system to enable this work, reducing barriers to delivering together and looking for ways to train and develop staff collectively.

What we offer

In return, we provide a supportive and collaborative environment where we work with our staff to provide opportunities for you to reach your full potential and to develop a rewarding career within an exciting and evolving environment. We aim to enable our employees to achieve a positive work-life balance through a blend of collaborative workplace attendance combined with regular home working.

There is also the opportunity to purchase additional leave. Flexible working patterns to support individuals work-life balance (Hybrid Working) Job description

Job responsibilities

Lead and manage the Integrated Care System People team in delivering a range of system-wide people initiatives. This will include initiatives such as overseeing leadership and development training, career conversations, system-wide attraction and recruitment activity and retention initiatives. Develop the ICS Academy to become the key hub where system-wide learning and development takes place, aligning this to the digital innovation centre and Primary Care training hub. Work with the apprenticeship experts across the system to deliver programmes to grow-our-own skillsets across the system and ensure that we have a future pipeline of skills and expertise across a range of professional functions. Understand the highest risks identified through our workforce planning processes and look for ways to address these, whether that be through the deployment of an existing solution or a newly commissioned initiative. Manage the day-to-day relationship with HRDs across the system, ensuring that they understand their strategies and priorities and are actively looking for ways to support or amplify these efforts, where it makes sense to do so, to create system-wide initiatives which provide better value for money and consistency. Work with NHSEs Workforce, Training and Education directorate to understand the opportunities coming out of the NHS Long-Term Workforce Plan and how we can use these to further develop our system workforce approach. Work with Worcester University and other further education providers to create opportunities for students to come and learn in our system through placements and work experience.
