Do you have what it takes to be our Independent Chair?

Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care System is looking to recruit an Independent Chair.

As a partnership of NHS, local authority, public sector, voluntary, faith and social enterprise and academic organisations, we are working together to join up health and care services, listen to the priorities of our communities, local people and patients and tackle some of the biggest challenges we are all facing.

To help us on the next stage of our journey, we are looking for an Independent Chair who can provide non-executive and independent leadership, helping to ensure the successful implementation of our strategy.

Our ambitious vision for Lancashire and South Cumbria is that communities will be healthy and local people will have the best start in life, so they can live longer, healthier lives.

At the heart of this vision are the following ambitions:

• We will have healthy communities
• We will have high quality and efficient services
• We will have a health and care service that works for everyone, including our staff.

The Independent Chair will support the ICS in the next stage in its evolution, enabling system leaders to maximise the benefits of collaborative working, shared decision making and effective governance.

Anyone interested in applying should read our candidate pack and speak to our recruitment partners, Janice Scanlan and Jenny Adrian, at Hunter Healthcare on 020 7935 4570 to arrange a confidential discussion.

Applications close 24 February 2020.
