The Secondary Care, Primary Care, Community Services, Vaccines and Screening (SPCVS) Finance and Planning Business Partnering Team in the NHS England Finance and Planning Directorate is now recruiting for two senior finance leads
This is a fantastic opportunity to be at the heart of work to support the NHS. We:
· Decide how to distribute the funding to the different NHS services and parts of England;
· Support innovative programmes that improve the care and experience of NHS patients or people using NHS services;
· Set out the financial and performance priorities the NHS should be delivering each year;
· Report how much the NHS has spent on providing services each year;
· Explore how the NHS can make the best use of its money;
· Look at how spend on building or equipment can improve the care and experience of people using NHS services.
· Consider how nationally we use these resources to improve healthcare outcomes, reduce inequality, improve health and support the NHS.
As a senior finance lead you will be a key finance business partner contact with two or three directorates that the SCPVS team support. You will help programmes design and implement affordable and value for money policy initiatives, taking forward the vision of the 10 year health plan. And you will help programmes manage their in-year budgets to plan by, with colleagues in your team, leading on monthly reporting and budget setting for the directorates you support.
The team offers high profile, fast-paced projects. This requires adaptability, rigor and innovation and provides exciting development opportunities for those developing their careers in the NHS, health or the public sector.
Below are the types of skills and experience that we are looking for.
Even if you feel you only meet some of the criteria, we encourage you to apply.
· Ability to support policy colleagues in assessing the value for money and affordability of new policy proposals
· An understanding of allocations and financial flows in the NHS and how to establish funding and payment approaches for new delivery areas given these
· Experience of leading a team producing internal financial reporting, supporting forecasting and agreeing budgets
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.
