Purpose
Trailblazer is a government funded programme that offers intensive MSK and employment support. This service has been designed to integrate someone’s health recovery journey and their employment support journey into one holistic pathway.
Trailblazer sits within our Community Health & Wellbeing division and is a growing part of the business and our wider employment support offer to our beneficiaries. We work in partnership with Musculoskeletal (MSK) teams, GP practices and other referral partners who refer participants who are currently unemployed or in employment but are experiencing difficulties in the workplace. If they require assistance to help them return to work, remain in work or find new employment we will offer that support directly.
We need a Health and Employment Coach to provide highly effective support to individuals and guide them on their journey to returning, remaining or finding new employment while also supporting them to improve their health and wellbeing. The Health and Employment Coach will also be instrumental in supporting participants to manage their MSK related barriers by working in collaboration with our team of specialists in a community hub environment.
This contract is currently commissioner for 12 months and being reviewed regularly. We are considering all options for recruited staff including retention incentives to reward those who join us.
