Job overview

NHS Derby and Derbyshire, NHS Lincolnshire and NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Executive Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) Cluster

Following the decision to cluster NHS Derby and Derbyshire ICB, NHS Lincolnshire ICB and NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire ICB under a single Executive Director Team we are looking for an Executive Director of Commissioning.

The cluster ICBs will have a critical role to play in delivering the ambitions of the NHS 10-Year Plan and in achieving the new NHS operating model. The NHS 10-Year Plan emphasizes prevention, personalised care, and integrated neighbourhood services; goals that will need strong strategic commissioners to bring about changes to how services are organised and how resources are allocated.

Main duties of the job

Our ambition is to achieve a high performing Integrated Care System able to rival the best in the world for our population of over 3.2 million people. This is the opportunity presented to our new Executive Directors in helping to spearhead exciting changes to the way we serve our local population.

Working for our organisation

This opportunity comes with the massive reward of knowing that you are:

  • Improving outcomes in population health and healthcare
  • Tackling inequalities in outcomes, experience, and access
  • Enhancing productivity and value for money and
  • Helping the NHS support broader social and economic development.

Detailed job description and main responsibilities

Of course, you’ll need the usual qualities essential for these types of very senior leadership positions – such as substantial board level experience and experience of leading highly complex improvement programmes.

But you will also need the ‘human touch’ to build effective relationships with the local public and other key stakeholders – not to mention establishing professional credibility and working relationships with counterparts across the local system and beyond.

Nobody said that change was easy – but the rewards are immense. If you would like to find out more about the role, please contact Amanda Sullivan, Designate Chief Executive email [email protected].
