Job Description
Chair – NHS Cheshire & Merseyside Integrated Care Board
NHS Cheshire & Merseyside Integrated Care Board (ICB) serves a diverse population of over 2.7 million people across nine local authority areas, making it one of England’s largest and most complex health systems. Our mission is clear: to improve population health, reduce inequalities, and deliver person-centred, joined-up care in partnership with local authorities, providers, communities, and the voluntary sector.
As the NHS evolves, ICBs are central to leading a new model of health and care. This includes shifting the focus from treatment to prevention, from hospital to community, and from analogue to digital, while embedding equity and value in every decision. The Cheshire & Merseyside ICB is ambitious in this agenda, with priorities ranging from tackling inequalities; financial recovery and urgent care improvement; to advancing the Net Zero agenda.
We are seeking a values-driven, inclusive, and strategic leader to become our next Chair. This is a pivotal role in shaping and leading our Board through a period of significant challenge and opportunity. The Chair will:
* Provide visible and compassionate leadership, ensuring the ICB delivers against its statutory duties and strategic priorities.
* Ensure robust governance, transparency, and accountability for stewardship of public money.
* Support innovation, financial sustainability, and the transformation required to meet the national ICB model blueprint.
* Champion collaboration across NHS organisations, local government, and wider partners to improve outcomes for the people of Cheshire & Merseyside.
* Lead the Board in building system-wide partnerships that tackle health inequalities and improve access, quality, and value of services.
The Person
We are looking for an individual with:
* Significant leadership experience at Board or equivalent level in a complex organisation.
* A collaborative style, with the ability to influence across organisational and sector boundaries.
* A track record of delivering strategic vision and governance with integrity, openness, and inclusivity.
* Strong understanding of population health, health inequalities, and the wider determinants of health.
* Personal resilience, commitment to the Nolan Principles of Public Life, and alignment with NHS values.
Terms of Appointment
* Remuneration: £70,000 – £80,000 per annum.
* Time commitment: Minimum 2.5 – 3 days per week, including preparation, evening engagements, and stakeholder events.
* Tenure: 3 years, renewable up to 9 years subject to performance and approval.
