The Children and Young People Integrated Neighbourhood Team Project Manager for Bexley is an exciting new role that offers the right candidate a fixed term or secondment opportunity for 1 year.

Working closely with ICB, community, primary, acute, education and social care colleagues you will support the development and implementation of Bexley's Integrated Neighbourhood Teams (INTs) for Children and Young People (CYP).

This role would suit someone with experience of leading change and coordinating projects, who can work with a number of different stakeholders to take this plan forward and help improve outcomes for children and young people in Bexley.

Although your base will be Memorial Hospital the post holder will work across a number of different sites flexibly, as well as some time where working from home would be an available option.

Nationally, ICB areas are tasked with implementing INTs in 2026/27 to priority cohorts. The post holder will work alongside partners in the ICB, community, primary, acute health services as well as education, social care and the voluntary sector to co-produce and implement Bexley’s CYP INT model. Your work will help create joined-up, person-centred services that tackle health inequalities and genuinely improve outcomes for local people– as set out in the NHS 10-year plan.
