MSK Trailblazer Team Leader

Overview

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.

You may be asked to support other boroughs that aren\’t your allocated area to support the demands of the business on a temporary basis but those travel expenses will be covered.

Role and Responsibilities

We need a highly effective Team Leader to support and lead Health and Employment coaches in providing 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. This will include coaching and support, training, caseload reviews and performance management. This is a community based role that requires effective people management, autonomy when it comes to addressing the team needs and supporting your team within your allocated boroughs.
