Senior Public Health Practitioner (Smoking Cessation)
Adult Social Care & Health - Public Health
Bexley is a great place in which to live, work or study. It has the best of both worlds - close to the centre of London but still a green, safe, and friendly place to be. And our mission is to make Bexley even better by tackling health inequalities, supporting residents to live the best lives possible and to reach their potential.
To help us achieve our ambitions we are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, team player to join our developing public health team.
You will assist in the development, implementation and coordination of the smoking cessation programme and any additional health programmes linked to identified local health priorities. You will support the development of key strategies and plans and ensure that commissioned programmes improve resident outcomes and help tackle health inequalities.
Collaborative working is integral to delivering for our residents and you will aid and influence delivery across a range of stakeholders including across the local authority, the voluntary and community sector, within the new NHS Integrated Care Board (ICB) structure (at regional, ‘place’, and neighbourhood levels), and other relevant partners, such as housing associations and businesses.
If you are passionate about making a difference and developing a career in public health, then we would like to hear from you.
