Description

The role of the HWP System Board

The HWP System Board brings together senior leaders from the NHS (primary, secondary, community and mental health services), local authority and the VCFSE (Voluntary, Community, Faith & Social Enterprise). Its role is to focus on the shared priorities within the Locality Plan and those articulated through NHS GMIC, by working together, improve health, wellbeing and care for the population of Wigan Borough. The strategic aims of the Board are to:
• 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.
The Board's responsibilities are split over 3 key areas - Strategic Leadership of the System, Assurance and Accountability (locally to the Health & Wellbeing Board, to the GM ICB and to each other) and System Development and Transformation.

The Role of the Independent Advisor

We are seeking to appoint an Independent Advisor to the Board whose key responsibilities will include:
• Provide guidance, advice and challenge in relation to the transition to new Locality arrangements for health and care

• To support the establishment and development of the HWP Integrated Delivery Board
• Share knowledge, experience and advice on quality improvement methodologies and quality management systems
• Support work across organisational and sectoral boundaries to ensure meaningful engagement in the work of HWP
• Ensure members of the System Board/ICB follow the 7 'Nolan Principles' of Public Life.
• Foster effective and constructive relationships within the system and externally between the System Board/ICB, key stakeholders and partners.
• Attend ad hoc/informal meetings as required.
• Network across Greater Manchester to link in with the GM agenda where required.

All Members of the HWP System Board will collectively be expected to:

1. Set strategy and deliver long-term transformation.
2. Build trusted relationships with partners and communities.
3. Lead for social justice and health equality.
4. Drive high quality, sustainable outcomes.
