Public Health Consultant leading in Health Intelligence Research and Development, Education and Training
A few words from Dr Anjan Ghosh, Director of Public Health
Thank you for your interest in this critical and senior public health role in my top team.
We are at an exciting point, working in partnership with other council directorates, district and borough councils, the NHS, and other stakeholders, focusing on narrowing the gap in health inequalities across our population and creating a credible programme of system wide prevention. Additionally, we are working in partnership with the NHS Integrated Care System in developing its Integrated Care Strategy, which is also Kent’s Joint Local Health and Wellbeing Strategy.
As a member of my senior management team, you will be integral in leading and driving the successful development and delivery of these strategies as well as the council’s strategic plan, which has a strong focus on the health and wellbeing of Kent’s population, an emphasis on the importance of demand management, and prevention and the authority’s role in helping the population make lifestyle choices to help achieve their potential.
As a member of my senior management team, you will be integral in leading and driving the successful development and delivery of the public health strategy for Kent.
