Main duties of the job

We need leaders who enjoy delivering collaboratively through partnership and who will support a culture of public inclusion and involvement. Who can be inspirational and compassionate while holding people to account for delivery, and with the skills to effectively influence, supporting an open culture of continuous improvement, which places the resident at the heart of all we do.

About us

We commission health and care services for the 1.8 million people living in Lancashire and South Cumbria, with responsibility for spending over £5 billion on services to meet their needs and support improvement in health and wellbeing. Our population is spread over a complex geography and is extremely diverse.

This is a challenging but exciting time to join our Integrated Care Board. Despite the difficult task of halving the running and programme costs of the ICB, our new leadership structure places us in an excellent position to move forward with a vision for delivering strategic and population health focused commissioning which provides a huge opportunity to streamline how we deliver our vision to develop a community-centric health and care system. We have a blueprint of how to reconfigure the way in which clinical services are provided across the system, and we know we must work alongside our partners in local authorities, social care, education and the voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise sector to increase the provision of care in the home and community, enabled by the best use of digital technology. Delivering this vision will both improve outcomes and narrow the significant health inequalities that currently exist in our communities.
