This is an exciting opportunity to take a system-wide leadership role, delivering high-impact initiatives that improve antimicrobial prescribing, reduce unwarranted variation, and support better patient outcomes. A key focus of the role will be leading a penicillin allergy de-labelling (PADL) programme within GP practices.
Working within the Integrated Care Board (ICB), this secondment offers a unique opportunity to gain insight into commissioning, system leadership and how care is planned and delivered across an integrated care system. It would be particularly valuable for candidates who have primarily worked in provider organisations, such as acute trusts, and are keen to broaden their experience and understanding of how services are designed, commissioned and connected at system level. Main duties of the job You will work across organisational boundaries, influencing practice, engaging stakeholders, and turning evidence into meaningful change. This role is ideal for someone with strong clinical or medicines optimisation knowledge, excellent relationship-building skills, and the drive to lead improvement at scale.
In this role, you will lead the delivery of antimicrobial stewardship projects across the Integrated Care System, ensuring they align with national policy and local priorities. You will manage defined workstreams, coordinate activity across organisations, and ensure delivery against agreed milestones and outcomes. About us We offer excellent employment opportunities to new and existing staff. We aim to be a model employer by embedding best HR practice and to support new ways of working.
We pride ourselves on offering good working conditions, job security, lifelong learning, fair pay and benefits, staff involvement and a balance between work and personal life.
We enjoy a forward thinking and innovative culture and our vision is to have healthy people, living healthy lives in healthy communities. We understand the only way to deliver this is to have the right people with the right skills.

27 days paid minimum holiday and bank holiday entitlement
NHS pension scheme
Sick pay policy
Occupational health services including staff counselling services
Flexible working and family friendly policies
Flexible retirement and retirement vouchers
Health Service Discounts - offers for stores, travel, equipment etc.
Successful candidates will be subject to a six-month probationary period Job description Job responsibilities You will be joining the Medicines Optimisation Team at an important stage of development, as we continue to evolve following organisational change. We are a small, dedicated team working across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, committed to improving patient outcomes through medicines optimisation and antimicrobial stewardship.
