Description

Cheshire West is a great place to grow up, live, work and play. Many of our villages, towns and neighbourhoods are amongst the most attractive and dynamic communities in the country. We have a thriving economy and cultural sector, and our parks and green spaces are second to none.

However, there are areas of significant disadvantage, both rural and urban, where residents experience poorer living conditions, educational attainment, economic prospects, and more years of poor health.

Tackling those inequalities and improving population health is at the very heart of our Cheshire West Place Plan, and we are looking for a suitably qualified and experienced Consultant in Public Health to help deliver this vision.
