Organisational structure

This chart, an organogram, is published in response to a request from the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, dated 9 December 2022. The request asks Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) to publish “the structure of teams within the ICB, including the number of staff in each team and at each grade and the total cost per team. This will help the public to understand how ICBs are structured including which roles report to others and also highlight the work that you are doing to develop integrated care.”

The figures in the chart relate to substantive (permanent) posts funded by the ICB Running Cost Allocation, a specific allocation covering the corporate administrative functions of the ICB. At any one time due to staff turnover a number of teams may have vacancies or posts may be filled by temporary staffing whilst recruitment is underway, but the tables represent the full establishment assuming all posts are filled.

Of the 339 posts in the chart, 111 (32.7%) are posts required for statutory functions such: as Quality and Equity Improvement; Finance; Financial Controller; Planning, Strategy and Programmes; Mental Health, Learning Disability and CHC finance; and Primary Care and Community finance.

In addition to the directly employed workforce, additional corporate functions are supported by contracts with a local Commissioning Support Unit and a local NHS Trust. These include elements of Business Intelligence, Finance, HR, Procurement, IT and Counter Fraud services. Staff providing these services are employed by the relevant partner organisation and are therefore excluded from this organogram.
