Make a tangible difference to local communities as a Healthcare Inequalities Support Specialist working with NHS Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin Integrated Care Board. This Band 6, full‑time secondment role (salary £38,682–£46,580) is based at Wellington Civic Offices (TF1) and sits within the Health Inequalities Team, driving forward the Healthcare Inequalities Improvement Programme and Greener NHS agendas. You will coordinate programmes and projects across the Integrated Care System, maintain project documentation (plans, risk registers, highlight reports), produce clear reports and presentations for a range of audiences, and support data analysis, assurance returns and business cases. The post requires advanced Microsoft Office skills, experience of project support in a healthcare setting, strong stakeholder engagement and the ability to work independently to tight timescales. The ICB operates an agile working policy with at least 40% of the working week in the office. This vacancy is only open to employees of the Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin ICS and applications will only be accepted from staff employed by NHS Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin Integrated Care Board; Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust; Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic NHS Foundation Trust; Shropshire Community Health NHS Trust; Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust; Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin Primary Care Organisations; and NHS Staffordshire and Stoke‑on‑Trent Integrated Care Board. Applicants seeking a secondment must gain line‑manager approval before applying. The role is subject to a DBS check.

This opportunity is ideally suited to people who care about fairness in health and who want their work to have visible local impact — particularly women and carers looking for meaningful, flexible work that values life outside the office. You will need a degree or equivalent experience, solid project coordination skills, strong analytical ability to interpret health inequality data, excellent written and verbal communication and confidence in influencing colleagues across clinical, commissioning and community teams. Desirable skills include project methodology knowledge such as PRINCE2 and experience with PMO tools.
