Project Manager Tobacco Control

Job description

Full Time / 37 Hours Per Week / Permanent

Join our dynamic and vibrant public health team who are working on exciting projects to address tobacco control issues within the City.

Working together with a wide range of external agencies such as, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities, the Integrated Care Board, Emergency Services, Private and Third Sector, it's time to develop, implement and manage effective tobacco control strategies.

The team plays an integral role in scoping out new developments to effectively address tobacco control issues for all residents of the City. An important element to take into consideration is the support we offer as a team to the most at risk, including Looked After Children and those in social housing where smoking rates are higher.

This is a full time position on a permanent contract. You'll be working 37 hours a week with typical working hours being 8.30am-5.00pm Monday to Thursday and 8.30am-4.30pm on a Friday. However, occasional weekend and evening work may be required. You'll have flexibility in hybrid working being both office based, at City Hall or working remotely from home to suit your needs. Part Time applicants will be considered.

What you'll be doing

You'll be part of a small team and will have close working relations with other project and service managers. By supporting engagement with local communities, and both internal and external stakeholders, you'll understand and address local health needs, and implement appropriate action set out in the tobacco control strategy for Leicester. By collecting and using localised insight and data you'll play a key role in instigating effective decision-making. You'll develop and manage the public health tobacco control agenda across the city and in local communities by developing, commissioning, and managing programmes and services that encourage smoking cessation and reduce smoking related health inequalities. You'll develop and maintain strong relationships with partners both locally, regionally and nationally to effectively address tobacco control across the City.

What you'll need

With substantial experience as a Public Health related professional, you'll understand the importance of tobacco control and the need to treat tobacco dependency to reduce health inequalities and improve population health. You'll have experience of project management within the NHS, local government or comparable organisations. With good organisational skills and the ability to work under pressure, you'll have a proven track record of successfully managing complex programmes within agreed budgets and timescales. Using excellent communication skills, you'll have the ability to present complex information clearly and concisely to a wide range of audiences in order to persuade/influence decision makers. With tenacity and a creative approach, you'll be able to analyse complex data and devise effective, creative and innovative solutions.

What we can offer you

As well as the satisfaction of helping to improve thousands of lives across Leicester, you can look forward to a work environment that encourages a healthy work/life balance. You'll enjoy generous annual leave, membership of the Local Government Pension Scheme and the option of flexible working. We'll also give you the chance to develop your skills and expertise with a variety of training and development opportunities. In addition, you can choose from several flexible benefits, including discounts on city buses and trains. For an illustrative value of your benefits package benefits calculator.
