Job description
The Primary Care, Community Services, Vaccinations and Screening Finance and Planning Business Partnering team in the NHS England Finance and Planning...
The team offers high profile, fast-paced projects. This requires adaptability, rigor and innovation and provides exciting development opportunities for those developing their careers in the NHS, health or the public sector.
Below are the types of skills and experience that we are looking for. Even if you feel you only meet some of the criteria, we encourage you to apply.
The main duties of the role will include:
- Developing and producing information to support accurate and timely monthly and annual financial performance reports for presentation at programme meetings and to feed into the Directorate's position for corporate reporting, with the information interpreted in a way that supports internal decision-making from finance and non-finance colleagues
- Producing robust and complete financial forecasting and identification of risks and opportunities for assigned budget areas
- Developing in-depth understanding of policy and operational plans and provide high quality business advice for the assigned budget areas within vaccination and screening services
- Provide financial analysis to support on value for money assessments and business case development
- Building strong relationships with colleagues to enable delivery of key responsibilities
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.
Staff recruited from outside the NHS will usually be appointed at the bottom of the pay band.
We cannot offer visa sponsorship for any vacancies.
