Like all roles at Thrive Tribe, you can expect your time at work to be fun, varied and challenging. We don’t like to stick to a firm JD as we know from experience that things change throughout the lifetime of a role and it gives our people the chance to play to their strengths.

- Ensuring due consideration is given to Information Governance and Clinical Governance legislation, requirements and guidance Helping us maintain the ethos of Thrive Tribe by driving our organisational culture forward across our services and using every opportunity to embed our values

**About you**

More than anything, we are looking for a team player who puts their heart in to their work. We’ve got some core values that run through everything we do, and we’d love it if they resonate with you too

**Be the change**

You like helping people. You’ll be working with those who need help the most, empowering them to make positive changes to thrive.

**Be effective**

You’re patient and can adapt under pressure. Always happy to make time for other people. And have a great attitude.

**Be happy**

You recognise the power of a smile. You value a fun, supportive workplace and want to come to work raring to go (check out our rating on Glassdoor).

**Be successful**

You are motivated and driven. Happy working solo or as part of a team, you love meeting targets. And will be given opportunities to contribute and develop your career.

**Be big-hearted**

You want to make a difference. Working with a like-minded team of optimistic people, we want the same thing to do meaningful work and change lives.

To work with us in this role you will need to have some experience of supporting individuals, ideally children or young people, to make healthy lifestyle choices through nutrition, physical activity or health coaching. A qualification in nutrition, health coaching, fitness instructing or experience delivering physical activity would be a bonus

Although not essential, so that we can best support the needs of our clients in Nottingham we are particularly keen to hear from applicants who are fluent in Polish, Urdu, Arabic and/or Romanian.

However, we hire based on attitude over traditional skills and experience so if you feel you are right for the job we would love to hear from you

**Perks...**

Every person makes Thrive Tribe the incredible place it is to work and play together, we’re unstoppable. Within our buzzing environment our talented people work hard but we ensure lots of fun is thrown in too We offer you;
