The role offers the opportunity to influence system-wide working, build strong partnerships and make a real difference to the lives of local people.
If you are passionate about partnership working, enjoy building relationships and are committed to improving outcomes for communities, we would love to hear from you.
Together, we can make mental health everyone's business and bring care closer to the communities we serve.
