ASH is currently in the process of recruiting what it calls an ‘NHS strategic lead’.
This is a senior role within public health charity Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) to engage the NHS in action to tackle smoking’.
The salary is £50-60,000, depending on experience, but what’s more interesting is the fact that:
This role is to deliver on an NHS England funded project.
It’s not clear if the taxpayer will also be picking up the tab for the new ‘NHS strategic lead’ but I can’t imagine ASH would take on that financial burden without additional funding.
If so, is ‘taxpayer funds senior role within lobby group ASH’ a first? I think we should be told.
The deadline for applications is 11.59pm this evening. Full details here.
