Summary
The North London Mental Health Partnership is a collaboration between the Barnet, Enfield, and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust (BEH) and the Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust (C&I). Our vision is Better Mental Health, Better Lives and Better Communities and our aims are to provide consistently high quality care closer to home; with our partners in North London and each borough, ensure equity of outcome for all; offer great places to work, providing staff with a supportive environment to deliver outstanding care; and to be more effective as an organisation by pioneering research, Quality Improvement and technology. We are progressing to become one new NHS organisation by Autumn 2024. We were explicit from the outset that the partnership needed to focus on making a demonstrable difference to service users, local residents, and our staff. With our scale - £500m turnover and employing 5,500 staff – working as one voice for mental health, we aim to strengthen our influence over the strategic direction for mental health locally, regionally, nationally and internationally, ensuring that health and social care resources are fairly allocated to meet the needs of people with mental illness and health problems.
The Director of Strategy and Performance improvement is a key and unique new role, reporting to the CEO.
