Our Integrated Care System (ICS) footprint covers a large geographical area of 1,347 square miles and covers a population of around 500,000 people across the area of Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin. The ICS boundaries are coterminous with our two Local Authority footprints of Shropshire County Council and Telford and Wrekin Council. We have two acute hospitals, with services delivered by one acute trust, The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH). We also have a specialist orthopaedic hospital, Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital NHS Foundation Trust (RJAH). Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust (SCHT) provide our community services, and mental health services are provided by Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust (MPUFT) which covers Shropshire and Staffordshire. The region is served by the West Midlands Ambulance Service University NHS Foundation Trust (WMAS). Alongside this, our partnership includes our 51 GP Practices, social care services, and our diverse voluntary, community, and social enterprise sector.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and strategic leader who is a champion for reducing inequalities and brings substantial experience within a Board or significant senior leadership experience within a regulatory environment. Confident and credible in leading highly complex and sometimes contentious improvement and transformation at scale, your clear and inspiring communication style will empower our system’s multi-professional workforce to transform our health and care landscape, improving the health and wellbeing of our populations for now and the future.
We value and promote diversity and are committed to equality of opportunity for all and appointments made on merit. We particularly welcome applications from people who are from groups which are underrepresented at senior levels in the NHS and wider society, and we are a Disability Confident Employer.
