Job summary
Southwark is a diverse borough made up of five neighbourhoods: Bermondsey & Rotherhithe, Borough, Peckham & Nunhead, Camberwell & Walworth, and Dulwich. Each neighbourhood has distinct population needs, requiring tailored approaches to health and care delivery.
The role of the Neighbourhood Manager is central to supporting the development of Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs) that bring together professionals from across health, social care and the voluntary sector to provide joined-up, person-centred care focussing first on our priority population groups - Children and Young People, Frailty or Multiple Long Term Conditions.
We are currently recruiting for a manager for the remaining neighbourhood vacancy of Borough and the time available will be 0.6 wte.
This role is ideal for a secondment from a local organisation.
Main duties of the job
We are seeking an individual who will work collaboratively across organisational boundaries, embrace flexible and innovative ways of working, and commit to continuous improvement. This represents a significant cultural shift moving from a single-organisation focus to being part of a truly integrated team that places residents and communities at the heart of decision-making. The successful candidate will champion co-production, foster strong relationships with local partners, and help shape services for the population to reduce health inequalities and improve outcomes for all.
You will implement, develop and lead multi-agency integrated neighbourhoods teams in partnership with the neighbourhood professional and clinical leads. This means supporting the delivery of local priorities described in our Neighbourhood Plan.
You will work with local providers, communities and patients to ensure services are responsive to their needs and deliver proactive, personalised and preventative care.
