The role

This is an exciting time to join the Camden Health and Wellbeing Department as a Consultant in Public Health for Intergenerational Health.

You will lead the establishment of the Centre for Prevention, a sustainable model of public mental health that spans the life-course and bridges generations. You will also support and complement the development of Raise Camden, our child health equity programme. Your approach will consider and build on existing work across the department, while employing Camden’s missions-based approach to local government, as set out in We Make Camden and the Way We Work.

You will work with senior colleagues across the Council, voluntary and community sector and NHS including counterparts across the North Central London Integrated Care System, providing technical expertise and visible leadership to drive change and improve health outcomes.

You will join a well-resourced department and you will have the opportunity to build on existing interests, academic links. Your involvement in the Public Health Specialist training scheme and innovation are encouraged

You will work with and lead an able and enthusiastic team of public health practitioners, commissioning and intelligence specialists.
