Transform Tomorrow: Shape Health, Enhance Wellbeing

We are launching a brand-new Public Health service, moving away from our current partnership with Hampshire County Council. Our aim is to bring deeper focus to the unique challenges facing our Island community, with specific initiatives and programmes that align with our residents and tourists.

There will be a clear focus on the communities that are at the heart of our Island and how we can build capability and independence, improve outcomes for our children and create healthy environments through having a community centred approach to health and wellbeing.

To achieve our goals and improve the health and wellbeing of our residents, we need to engage a confident and capable Director of Public Health, who will lead the way in shaping this new local service area.

The Director of Public Health will be a statutory chief officer of the authority and the principal adviser on all health matters to elected members, officers, and partners.

This is a strategic post for the Island, which has a unique set of challenges, and offers you potential career growth and progression as you take the lead on health improvement, health protection and healthcare public health with a real community focus.

As our new Director of Public Health, you’ll be the system leader for improving the health and wellbeing of residents, reducing inequalities in health outcomes and protecting local communities from public health hazards (infectious diseases and environmental threats).

You’ll need to be an exceptional leader, with superb communication skills, able to engage, inspire and influence as you build on relationships with the public, media and partnership organisations including the Office of Health Improvement and Disparities, NHS England and UKHSA

We want you to challenge traditional thinking and identify risk aware innovative solutions that enhance the potential for improvement.

We are in the unique position of being able to offer this role on a reduced hours basis, if preferred, for the right applicant. This would be circa 30 hours per week, and will give the postholder a rare opportunity to be able to work at this level whilst also being able to embrace a rewarding work-life balance with more time to enjoy the lifestyle available here on the Isle of Wight

Join #TeamIWC and you'll receive our staff benefits package, including:

Annual leave entitlement of 32 days p/a PLUS public holidays!
Local Government pension scheme
Discounted Solent ferry travel
Island bus network discount
Cycle to work scheme
Staff parking permit scheme
Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
Discounted island sports & leisure gym membership
National and local discounts & benefits schemes
Relocation scheme of up to £8,000
Travel allowance if commuting from the mainland
