Some teams will also be working across both geographical areas and integrated care systems.This is a period of change for the NHS. The Government's 10 Year Health Plan presents an ambitious vision for a future NHS, with emphasis on the three 'shifts' - from hospital to community, from analogue to digital, and from cure to prevention - all underpinning the new neighbourhood health service.ICBs are also changing, with a clear focus on strategic commissioning and delivering neighbourhood working.This is an exciting time to work within our ICBs. We currently have the opportunity both to shape the future of our clustered organisations, and to be part of a radical transformation of care for the local people and communities across south London.Please note as you can only be employed by one ICB, this job description refers to 'the 'ICB', but your role may cover both ICB organisations, and / or geographical areas.Equality and diversityThe ICB is committed to providing services and employment to a community with an increasing variety of backgrounds.
