Job description

Social network you want to login/join with:

The Greater Manchester Resilience Hub (GMRH) is a unique, all age, psychology-led service originally established as a partnership between all the NHS mental health provider trusts in Greater Manchester in response to the Manchester Arena Attack on 22nd May 2017. We have since expanded to develop multiple workstreams, which creates a varied workload.

In addition to providing support to all those impacted by the Arena attack (a nationwide service), the GMRH also provides a staff wellbeing service for health and social care staff across GM. The Hub supports partner organisations in responding to major incidents across GM, offers a range of specialist training on trauma-related issues, and increasingly provides consultation to partner organisations developing trauma-responsive approaches.

Exceptional interpersonal skills, an understanding of trauma-responsive approaches, and a willingness to embrace and promote change are essential for this role. You will have the opportunity to work within a supportive team and contribute to an innovative service that is leading nationally in delivering all-age, family-focused, psychosocial, and trauma-responsive care.

This opportunity is a fixed-term contract or secondment until the end of March 2024, with the possibility of extension.
