This exciting post provides the opportunity to work with a high degree of autonomy, whilst working closely with the senior clinical lead (CPH).
In this role you will be responsible of the delivery of a comprehensive programme of quality assurance functions, capable of maintaining and further developing, effective high quality screening nationally. You will be required to provide strategic leadership for the place based quality assurance service, providing specialist advice and leading on national programme changes, which will play a pivotal role in the continual development and improvement of the NHS Screening Programmes.

The ideal candidate will have excellent interpersonal skills and will enjoy working with a wide range of stakeholders at a national, regional, ICB and local level. Working collaboratively with colleagues from other national portfolio teams to promote high quality and consistency across national screening programmes.



This role will be diverse and challenging, with no two days being the same. It will involve working with colleagues across the vaccination and screening directorate as well as wider directorates within NHS England, leading and supporting agreed national workstreams. Some of the work you can expect to be involved in includes:
• Co-developing national strategies, standards, guidance and outcomes to support the effective, efficient and equitable delivery of AAA and Diabetic eye screening services

• Collecting and disseminating best practice and evidence to support improvements in uptake, improving screening coverage across all our communities.
• Working with the Strategy Directorate to ensure those eligible for screening services know how and when to access services through clear and concise communications.
• Reducing health inequalities and promoting primary and secondary prevention within the services that we are responsible for

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.
