Barts Health NHS Trust are the largest Trust in London, comprising 4 hospitals, and employing a diverse workforce of over 24,000 including our temporary and bank staff.

As the successful candidate, you will have a pivotal role in the protection of the provision of support for colleague’s physical and psychological wellbeing, and will continue providing a central role in the management of their response to COVID-19.

You will have a keen focus on team and service development, and possess the inter-personal skills required to form effective working relationships across a large and complex organisation in addition to clients in the private sector. You will also have a strong understanding of the role of occupational health and workplace support.
