Statutory Director of Public Health
We are looking for an exceptional Director of Public Health and Communities to take on this system leadership role, and welcome applications from both experienced and aspirant candidates.
This is more than a traditional Director of Public Health role. In our organisation, the role brings together statutory public health leadership with a broader portfolio including leisure services, prevention and community wellbeing.
It is an excellent opportunity to lead across the whole system, influence the long-term direction of the organisation and the wider partnership and help improve outcomes for communities across the district. The role offers a unique platform to shape policy and strategic thinking at both organisational and regional levels, ensuring our organisation remains at the forefront of innovation, prevention and wellbeing
As a member of the Corporate Management Team, you will have a direct role in shaping the organisations overall strategic direction and collective leadership. You will work across the organisation and with partners to drive a place-based neighbourhood approach to prevention and tackle persistent inequality. You will influence at the highest level locally, regionally and nationally, ensuring public health insight and shape strategic decisions across the whole council and wider system.
You will be an experienced and accomplished senior leader who can step confidently into a significant and complex local authority role. You will bring the credibility, judgement and presence of a corporate and systems leader: someone who can work effectively with elected members; someone who can work across organisational boundaries, navigate complexity, influence a wide range of partners, and remain focused on the outcomes that matter most to residents.
Alongside your statutory and professional public health expertise, you will bring a track record of leading through influence, delivering through partnerships, and translating ambition into tangible improvements in population health, wellbeing and opportunity.
The role offers significant scope to innovate and leave a lasting legacy through new approaches to public health, community wellbeing and prevention
Candidates must be on the GMC Specialist Register (Public Health Medicine) with a licence to practise, the GDC Specialist List, or the UK Public Health Register at specialist level. Candidates will have membership of FPH by examination, by exemption or by assessment, or equivalent.
Closing date: 28 August 2026
