Clinical Lead - Place

This is a fantastic opportunity to join the clinical and care leadership team within NCL ICB and to drive better, more joined up health and care within boroughs and neighbourhoods. These are clinical leadership roles that reflect the need for borough-based clinical and care expertise around, and support to, transformation across Barnet and Camden with portfolios organised around life-courses: Start Well, Live Well and Age Well. We are looking to fill two Clinical Lead roles, on a secondment basis, up to 20 September 2025, within Camden and Barnet, as follows: Camden, Live Well - 2 sessions per week Barnet, Age Well - 2 sessions per week Each session is 3.5 hours, and the expectation is that successful candidates will be able to commit to working these sessions across one or two days, consecutively. Clinical leads will support local delivery in line with ICB priorities and the strengthening of local clinical and professional collaboration as we continue to develop as an ICS. Postholders will be key members of borough-based teams and will report into the borough Clinical Director and Director of Place. Working closely with clinical and officer colleagues, postholders will be a key player in building partnerships and collaborating with providers, public health, local authority, other partners (e.g. voluntary sector) and local people to deliver better access, improvements in life outcomes, and reductions in health inequality., The clinical leads will provide specialist input to borough partnership priorities. As well as inspiring and motivating clinical colleagues to effect change, they will initiate, oversee and directly participate in transformational work linked to Start Well, Live Well and Age Well. We are seeking individuals with deep knowledge and understanding of the health challenges and priorities faced across NCL boroughs, an understanding of local communities and the local health and care landscape. You will be passionate about, and have experience of, systems leadership, quality improvement, and delivering through collaboration., ICBs are statutory NHS bodies responsible for planning and allocating resources to meet the four core purposes of ICSs:

• Improve outcomes in population health and healthcare
• Tackle inequalities in outcomes, experience and access
• Enhance productivity and value for money
• Help the NHS support broader social and economic development
Our ICB strategy for population health improvement will be underpinned by quality, clinical and people strategies which set out a commitment to develop, grow and support clinical leaders from all professional backgrounds to play a central and crucial system leadership role in designing and delivering equitable, high quality person-centred care to our patients and residents. We have created a model of clinical and care professional leadership to deliver this commitment and are recruiting to several roles to set us out on our journey.

On 1 July 2022, NHS North Central London Integrated Care Board (NCL ICB) was established. NCL ICB is part of North Central London Integrated Care System (ICS). The ICS is a partnership of organisations that have come together to plan and deliver joined up health and care services to improve the lives of people in our five boroughs: Barnet, Camden, Enfield, Haringey and Islington.
