We believe in working together for better mental health. We’re working closely with health and care partners and voluntary sector organisations to transform mental health care to ensure the people of Norfolk and Suffolk get help and support in the right place for them, when they need it, to stay mentally and emotionally well.
Role Overview
We are now looking to appoint into our newly created role of Speaking Up Manager to drive a more compassionate approach to organisational culture in the way we care for staff and the people they serve. The role will operate independently, impartially and objectively on all matters relating to concerns raised in the workplace, taking a visible role in promoting the processes through which these concerns can be raised.
Key Responsibilities
Work in partnership with the Head of Speaking Up, the independent Guardian Service and groups within the organisation including the Board, Chief Executive, Non-executive Directors and the senior leadership team. Drive cultural change, enhance employee engagement, and ensure patient safety remains a top priority. Support the delivery of a transformational speaking up strategy aligned to our new values and behaviours.
Opportunities
This is a great opportunity in the Trust at a time when it is developing a highly innovative and clinically led model of care delivery, with a true commitment to inclusion, coproduction and quality improvement. You can be at the forefront of systemwide changes in the way we support staff to deliver a model that addresses health inequalities.
This role would allow the successful candidate to experience cross sector leadership working and to gain greater insight into the whole health system and wider context.
Who We Are Looking For
We welcome applications from a diverse range of people, both in terms of background but also experience. A key factor in delivering transformational change in this space will be the ability to support the delivery of large scale improvement programmes.
Here at NSFT we pride ourselves on being a welcoming, talented, friendly and supportive team who like nothing better than sharing experiences and learning from each other. In addition to ongoing training and development opportunities, we are committed to providing an environment in which you can thrive.
Why Work For Us?
We have challenges as a Trust, but we have ambitious aspirations, are pushing ahead with exciting transformation work and we need dedicated individuals to support us on our journey. We have strong, established professional networks coupled with an exceptional leadership team who will ensure you are truly cared for and cared about.
Why Norfolk and Suffolk?
The people here are warm and welcoming, you’ll never be far from the beautiful coastline or Broads National Park. We’re an hour and a half away from London and have an international airport in Norwich too. Our villages, towns and cities are packed full of history, independent cafes, shops and theatres. We have excellent shopping, eating out, top ranking schooling and affordable house prices too.
