Summary


The post holder will work as part of a dynamic team to support NHS England’s clinical commissioning policy and evaluative commissioning programmes for specialised services. You will be in a role mentored by the National Deputy Medical Director (Specialised Services). Once experience has been gained you will be building, writing, consulting and publishing national clinical policy independently to standards of delivery.

Key responsibilities include:

• Providing support to policy working groups in line with NHS England’s published methods for the development of clinical commissioning policies
• Supporting clinicians, patients and industry representatives by drafting, testing and refining clinical commissioning policies, and evaluative commissioning proposals that aim to improve outcomes and the cost effectiveness of care for patients and reflect the available clinical evidence and, where possible, clinical consensus
• Supporting the impact assessment process, identifying the likely impact of policy, and evaluative commissioning proposals on patients and existing service provision
• Undertaking stakeholder testing and public consultation to help test, sense check and refine draft products
• Supporting panel members (for example the Specialised Commissioning Clinical Panel) to understand the available evidence of clinical effectiveness and how it has informed policy proposals
• Contributing to the ongoing review and refinement of policy, and evaluative commissioning methodology to support evidence based decision making and prioritisation of available resources
• Providing effective project management leadership and support, to various relevant topics, to ensure the timely delivery of products in line with agreed timescales and commitments to internal and external stakeholders

• Identifying potential new topics for consideration within the forward policy development programme



The 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.
• Making the NHS a great place to work, where our people can make a difference and achieve their potential.
• Working collaboratively to ensure our healthcare workforce has the right knowledge, skills, values and behaviours to deliver accessible, compassionate care
• Optimising the use of digital technology, research, and innovation
• Delivering value for money.
