VCFSE Full Partner Member Recruitment to the ICB Board
The Cheshire and Merseyside VCFSE Health and Care Leaders Group and the Integrated Care Board (ICB) have formally and proudly agreed that our sector should be a full partner member.
Previously we have been a participant in the ICB but this change recognises the work and potential of the sector emphatically outlined through the VCFSE Health and Care Transformation Programme (led by VSNW in partnership) and the Cheshire and Merseyside State of the Sector Report 2023.
Consequently, the VCFSE Leadership Group and the ICB are looking for applications from VCFSE leaders for this role. This unique opportunity will see you working alongside the Chair, non-executives, executive directors, and other partner members as an equal voting member of a unitary board. Given this, connections to the wider sector and our VCSE Alliance governance structures will be a priority.
Your role will be integral in promoting board governance, securing wide contribution, and bringing a unique constituency perspective. You will also be involved in strategic planning, transformation, fostering partnerships, promoting social justice, health equality, and ensuring sustainable outcomes.
Key Responsibilities:
Connecting to the VCFSE Alliance structures
Setting strategy and delivering long-term transformation
Building trusted relationships with partners and communities
Leading for Social Justice and health equality
Driving high quality, sustainable outcomes
Providing robust governance and assurance
Creating a compassionate and inclusive culture for our people
The expected time commitment required for this position will be in the range of 2 to 3 days per month.
