The role will include a mixed consultant portfolio to include strategic healthcare public health and support to specialised commissioning at regional and national level.

The new NHS England board have set out the top-level purpose for the new organisation to lead the NHS in England to deliver high-quality services for all, which will inform the detailed design work and we will achieve this purpose by:
• Enabling local systems and providers to improve the health of their people and patients and reduce health inequalities.

About us
We are a team who are passionate about improving health and reducing inequalities through access to effective, high-quality services.

NHS England employs consultants on NHS terms and conditions i.e., 2003 medical and dental consultant contract, or Agenda for Change 8D. Plus NHS pension.
Recognising that this is a specialist role, we are keen to hear from both newly qualified and experienced consultants in public health who are willing to develop into this role. For those with less experience of healthcare/specialised commissioning, support and training will be provided by our experienced and welcoming team.
