An exciting opportunity has arisen within the Workforce Benefits Service at Calderdale and Huddersfield NHS Foundation Trust (CHFT). This pivotal role involves supporting all aspects of workforce benefits administration and will be highly visible across the Trust. As part of the team, you will be responsible for promoting and managing a range of benefits schemes to the Trust’s employees across the CHFT footprint.
This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to the success of the Workforce Benefits Service and play a key role in supporting the well-being of employees.

We employ more than 6,500 staff who deliver compassionate care from our two main hospitals, Calderdale Royal Hospital and Huddersfield Royal Infirmary as well as in community sites, health centres and in patients’ homes. We also are incredibly proud to have almost 150 volunteers here at CHFT.
We provide a range of services including urgent and emergency care; medical; surgical; maternity; gynaecology; critical care; children’s and young people’s services; end of life care and outpatient and diagnostic imaging services.
We provide community health services, including sexual health services in Calderdale from Calderdale Royal and local health centres. These include Todmorden Health Centre and Broad Street Plaza.
We continue to modernise and invest in our health services to build on our strong reputation. Foundation trusts are public leaders in improving quality in health services. They are part of the NHS – yet decisions about what they do and how they do it are driven by independent boards. Boards listen to their Council of Governors and respond to the needs of their members – patients, staff and the local community.
Foundation trusts provide what the health service wants, yet are also free to invest quickly in the changes to the local community needs, in striving to be the best, and in putting their patients first.
