Whether you currently work inside or outside the NHS, this could be your next great career move.

We're seeking an experienced manager to lead our exceptional Working Well team -- a SEQOHS accredited service employing over 50 multi-disciplinary colleagues including clinicians, managers, technicians, and administrators.

The team provides OH services to much of the local health care community. In addition, it operates a “Hub and Spoke” arrangement for a large NHS Trust covering the whole of the South West, alongside a portfolio of circa 200 non-NHS, private and public clients.

The role provides an opportunity to join a successful team which is part of a wider organisation recently rated 1 st = among South West NHS provider trusts in the national Staff Survey, and, 2 nd in the National Education Training Survey regionally too. Our colleagues have also rated us the 5 th best NHS mental health, learning disabilities and community employer to work for in England. However, we’re not prepared to rest on our laurels and are passionate about continual improvement, being led by an ambition to be a “Great Place To Work.” We can’t achieve that without great OH services.

You’ll have operational responsibility for the day-to-day performance and delivery of an efficient, high quality and value for money OH service. Working closely with the Clinical Lead and the Occupational Health Consultant, you’ll ensure we work in line with best practice, SEQOHS standards and legislation. You’ll also have an appetite for truly nurturing existing business and finding new customers who share our values.

Your interpersonal, analytical and written skills will be well honed. You’ll also be able to understand data, lead tenders and contract negotiations.

As a key member of the wider HR & OD Directorate senior team you will be critical to making significant contributions to the health and wellbeing of health and social care colleagues across Gloucestershire.

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.

The qualification, training & experience requirements for the role are underlined in the Job Description/Person Specification.
