As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone.

What is a DBS Check?

A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role:

Enhanced DBS: Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police thats considered relevant to the role.

Enhanced with Barred Lists: Includes all of the above, plus checks against the childrens and/or adults barred lists.

Who Needs a DBS Check

Most roles involving direct patient contact, working with children or vulnerable adults, or access to sensitive information will require a DBS check. The job advert and recruitment team will let you know if this applies to your role.

The Costs for a DBS

At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment. If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred.

As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone.

What is a DBS Check?

A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role:

Standard DBS: Checks for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings.

Enhanced DBS: Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police thats considered relevant to the role.

The Costs for a DBS

At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment. If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred.

For more information about the cost of the various types of DBS, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/dbs-fees-are-changing-in-december

Job responsibilities

This role requires strong collaboration across a wide range of stakeholders to ensure alignment and effective delivery. Internally, you will work closely with ICB colleagues, managers, and senior leadership to drive shared objectives.

Externally, you will engage with national and regional teams at NHS England, as well as Integrated Care System (ICS) partners, including portfolio leads, Local Authorities, Provider Collaboratives, and Place-based teams. Building constructive relationships with non-NHS organisations, members of the public, and service users is essential to ensure services reflect local needs and priorities.

You will also work in a matrix environment, collaborating across teams to manage interdependencies and maintain strategic alignment. Where specialist expertise is required, you will liaise with external consultancy partners to support delivery. These relationships are critical to creating a joined-up approach that maximises resources, drives quality improvement, and delivers meaningful outcomes for our population.

The Clinical Lead plays a pivotal leadership role within the Integrated Care Board (ICB), ensuring the effective delivery of the organisation's plans and priorities. Working closely with the Director and wider management team, the Clinical Lead provides strategic and operational leadership across a portfolio of programmes, ensuring that system ambitions are translated into tangible improvements in care, outcomes, and experience for local populations. They act as a key interface between strategic planning and operational delivery, ensuring that the ICB's vision and objectives are fully embedded across teams, partners, and programmes.

A core part of the Clinical Lead's role is to drive delivery of the ICB plan, ensuring alignment with national policy, local strategies, and partner priorities. This includes overseeing progress against the ICB's core "must-do" requirements while maintaining a sharp focus on longer-term transformation and system development. The Clinical Lead ensures that delivery is underpinned by robust governance, effective performance management, and strong collaboration across providers, local authorities, and the voluntary sector.

The Clinical Lead also leads and influences continuous improvement across the systemembedding a culture of learning, innovation, and accountability. They are responsible for ensuring that improvement methodologies are applied consistently, that data and insight drive decision-making, and that barriers to delivery are identified and addressed swiftly. Through effective leadership, partnership working, and a clear focus on outcomes, the Clinical Lead ensures that the ICB delivers both its statutory responsibilities and its wider strategic ambitions, supporting sustainable, high-quality care for all.

Ultimately, the Clinical Lead acts as a trusted Associate Clinician to the Director, providing leadership, resilience, and strategic capacity to the senior team. They play a crucial role in ensuring that the ICB operates as a cohesive, high-performing system one that delivers on immediate priorities while building the foundations for long-term improvement and integration across health and care.
