NHS Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board
Due to the retirement of the existing postholder, Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland Integrated Care Board are looking for their next Chief Strategy Officer. This is a Board level role responsible for the development of the long-term plan for the organisation and system, along with the yearly operational plan. Ensuring these are rooted in a population health management approach and addressing health inequalities.
The postholder will also be responsible for strategic commissioning, ensuring that services commissioned meet the strategy set, required outcomes, and focus on quality and improvement. The postholder will work with providers to develop collaboratives and partnerships, lead strategic estates and BI functions, and support strategic development at place and neighbourhood levels.
We are looking for an experienced senior leader with board level experience of leading and delivering complex change and strategy development programmes in a politically sensitive and complex environment. You will need to be able to challenge thinking and bring ideas together with excellent communication and partnership skills that enable you to work effectively across the system.
Main Duties of the Job For the main duties of the LLR ICB Chief Strategy Officer job, please see the attached Job Description.
About Us LLR ICB works with partners across the newly formed integrated care system. We tackle inequalities in health and deliver and improve the health and wellbeing and experience of local people, as well as providing value for money. We have the biggest opportunity in a generation for the most radical overhaul in the way health and social care services in LLR are designed and delivered, and have a clear purpose to work together for our population to have healthy, fulfilling lives.
We serve a large and diverse population - from some of the poorest areas of the country alongside some of the most affluent. LLR has a population of more than 1.1 million. Of these, around 360,000 people live in the city of Leicester and 40,000 in the county of Rutland. Collaborating with our partners in the NHS, council, voluntary, community, and social enterprise sectors, we know we have to work differently, and through our partnerships, we have established ambitious expectations for reducing health inequalities.
We are an award-winning ICB, recognized by NHS England as the most inclusive integrated care system for our work to improve equality and diversity. We are therefore looking to attract candidates from the broadest pool, including Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities, people from the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT+) communities, and those with lived experience of disability or a long-term condition.
