Job Overview
The Strategic Clinical Network for Women's Health is seeking an enthusiastic health professional, to help support the Clinical Lead, to ensure the needs of the diverse women of Wales have a voice in the development of the Women's Health Plan for Wales and the Women's Health Network.
There are 1.6 million women and girls living in Wales, making up 50.7% of the population. Although women on average live longer than men, evidence has shown that those extra years are more likely to be lived in poor health. This inequality is increased when we consider deprivation, with women from ethnically diverse backgrounds more likely to live in an area of deprivation.

This model of delivery for clinical services is one of the most important facets of health service delivery and by bringing clinical communities together, it has been shown that it is possible to develop national consensus on the transformation of specific services. By working in this way, important challenges are identified, the best solutions are developed and the whole system, local and national, pulls in the same direction and shares in the benefits. This approach results in large scale, strategic changes rather than isolated reforms that fail to spread and lead to ever greater unwarranted variation in care.
The Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Champion will need to be credible, leading a complex range of issues across professions. They do not need to be subject matter experts but will need to demonstrate they have experience of leading system and organisational/service change. Working in close partnership with the Clinical Lead they will need to communicate clearly and effectively with a diverse range of stakeholders ranging from very senior government officials, NHS Wales leadership community, NHS staff and wider stakeholders including third sector organisations.

The Discovery Report, published in 2022, presents the state of the nation for women's heal
th in Wales, combining an evidence review of women's health with the voices of women and girls in Wales.
