TLHC Project Support Officer

This requires a high calibre individual who can work autonomously in a stimulating and challenging environment to achieve outcomes efficiently.
The prospective candidate will be working within a newly developed team, working collaboratively with the TLHC programme manager, nursing colleagues & COPD community colleagues to support partnership working with GP practices, and external support organisations.
The TLHC Project Support Officer will be required to support the programme manager in the delivery of the programme, guided by the framework for the TLHC National Programme and National Protocol.
This will involve close and ongoing liaison with Clinical Leads for each locality, West Midlands Cancer Alliance, Public Health Leads, ICB Contracting, NHS Trusts and other relevant providers within the identified localities; to help design and plan the various delivery stages, whilst building and maintaining effective relationships across the organisations.
The project will focus on project mobilisation and evaluation. All components of the programme should be tailored to population needs; smoking cessation, public health and community awareness, lung health check invitations and lung pathway delivery.
The post will also contribute to other areas of work as required where delivery responsibility may be outside of your remit; therefore, the role requires excellent communication and negotiation skills to influence stakeholders from across a range of organisations.

Wye Valley NHS Trust is a member of an NHS Foundation Group with South Warwickshire NHS FT , the George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust and Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust.
Located on the border with Wales in the shadow of the Black Mountains, we provide acute and community services across Herefordshire and into parts of Powys and run Hereford County Hospital and the community hospitals in Bromyard, Leominster and Ross-on-Wye.
We are a progressive and forward looking trust with ambitious plans to improve quality and integrate patient pathways through close collaborative working with our partners to deliver the quality of care we'd want for our family and friends.
More than 3,500 people work for the Trust - they tell us it's a great place to work, blending the busyness of a DGH with the benefits of working in a beautiful rural and unspoilt county like Herefordshire.
We can offer a great work-life balance and have a fine tradition of working with staff to help them achieve their full potential.
Russell Hardy, Trust Chairman: "The strength of the Trust is its amazing staff; a great place to work, a great place to develop your career and a great place to reach your potential."
Our values - Care, Accountability, Respect and Excellence - are at the heart of all we do. We believe in providing the right care in the right place at the right time…all the time.
