Our ICBs were formed with four overarching aims: to improve outcomes in population health and healthcare; to tackle inequalities in outcomes, experience and access; to enhance productivity and value for money; and to help the NHS support broader social and economic development.Our two ICBs have been increasing our joint working arrangements and have an aspiration to enhance the health and care outcomes for the populations we serve by working more effectively together and harnessing the skills and expertise across both organisations. This is a career-defining role to develop a financial strategy and champion financial sustainability across two diverse systems. We're now seeking a Joint CFO who shares our ambition.

Main duties of the job

Our Joint CFO will be a pivotal member on our Boards and will be responsible for developing a system-wide integrated leadership approach to financial strategy, strategic commissioning and transformational change. The incumbent will work with partners to develop and deliver the NHS long term plan aimed at improving clinical outcomes, achieving better life outcomes and reducing health inequalities.

You will be a credible, resilient, and visionary financial leader with substantial experience of either working in complex organisations at Board level or senior system leadership experience within a regulatory environment. Adept at building sustained and inclusive relationships in challenging environments, you will have a track record of achieving change through empowering others and bring a focus on continuously seeking improvement in outcomes whilst delivering value for money through innovation.

About us

We value and promote diversity and are committed to equality of opportunity for all. We believe that the best Boards are those that reflect the communities they serve. We want to increase the diversity of our NHS leadership and particularly encourage applications from women, people from black and minority ethnic communities, LGBT communities, younger candidates and from people with lived experience of disability, who we know are all under-represented in these important roles.
