You will have proven experience in project management along with a desire to progress these skills further. You will have strategic and critical thinking, creative problem-solving, and a flexible 'can-do' attitude; commitment to teamwork to deliver outcomes.

Hybrid working arrangements are available for the majority of our roles, giving teams the opportunity to work in a way that suits them, balancing service need and individual choice, with a mix of both remote and office working.

This is an exciting opportunity to work in an establishing Integrated Care System which ensures that health and care are considered as a joint provision across the county. You will join a small team based at Shire Hall in Gloucester, working as part of an agile working offer (which includes working from home combined with time in the office).
