Do you want a rewarding opportunity that makes the most of your experience to inspire and lead a new workforce retention programme?

The ICS Legacy Mentor Lead role should appeal to an experienced health or social care professional who is passionate about leading our exciting new legacy mentoring programme.

You will be closely working with our ICS Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Professional legacy mentors to embed these new roles across the system and help them flourish. Your aim will be to co-produce a service that maximises our ability to retain and develop our early careers staff.

The lead role will be an advocate for our legacy mentor services by promoting its role, core duties, and the expected benefits to all our key stakeholders. This role will be key in leading a service that supports newly qualified colleagues to stay and stay well. You will need to be confident in building relationships and collaborating with others. You will be providing leadership, governance, and support as part of your role and through a new community of practice.

Using a quality improvement methodology, data collection, analysis and sharing of key outcome metrics the lead role will help demonstrate how legacy mentors can add value to our services.

The lead role will take responsibility for establishing and developing our new legacy mentors into a variety of different health care settings across our system. By taking a collaborative approach, the lead role will work closely with all our legacy mentors and key stakeholders to maximise this fixed funding offer.

The Legacy Mentor role is an experienced health and social care professional in the mid-late stages of their career. They will provide support to early career nurses, midwives, AHPs and those transitioning into new clinical roles by imparting knowledge, skills, and experience through coaching, mentoring and supporting them in the early stages of their newly chosen career. They will need to demonstrate empathy and patience, be passionate about the profession and be able to provide pastoral support to others, facilitating career conversations to support retention and reduce attrition. We can all reflect on the importance of mentors and role models in our own careers, and this is an opportunity to have that kind of influence on the incoming and transitioning generation as they set out on a career in health and care.

At Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust, we are supportive of the people we care for in the community and aim to provide a fully responsive service to everyone who needs it. This is the same approach we take for our employees. We look to value the skills and experiences of those we work with, whether they are service users, carers, families or those looking to work with us.

Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust is part of the NHS. We treat NHS patients according to NHS principles and standards. The difference is the Trust is accountable to local people, rather than to Government, and so we are able to work closely with our community to develop services in the way that best suits the needs of local people.

Our Staff Survey results showed people at our Trust feel they are engaged, part of a team and work for a compassionate and inclusive organisation.

Our overall scores were better than average in eight of nine themes and level in one - the best overall results for a community, mental health and learning disabilities Trust in the south west and first equal amongst all sector NHS providers within the region too.

Gloucestershire Health and Care is committed to embedding and providing personalised care through all of its services as part of our high-quality care strategy. The purpose of personalised care is to empower people to lead the lives they want to live. Personalised care starts with a conversation with people about what matters to them. It builds on what people can do, as well as addressing their health needs. Including new ways of working and delivering care, emphasising that we need to make effective use of the full range of our people’s skills and experience to deliver the best possible patient care. So we want to know What Matters to You and that you will share our values and join us on this very important journey.
