Health & Wellbeing Coach

Southern Brooks is looking for a new Health & Wellbeing Coach to join a brand-new project. Community Health Promotion Hubs are an exciting new initiative in South Gloucestershire.

The hubs will welcome a small group of people who share the same long-term health conditions, including obesity and anxiety. People will have the opportunity to talk with each other to share experiences, partake in a simple and fun physical activity and learn more about managing their conditions. They may set goals to make some positive lifestyle changes if they choose - the hubs are person-centred in their approach.

As a Health & Wellbeing Coach, you will work closely in a team of three people. You will be required to attend the hubs and then work independently with people, on a 1:1 basis, to support them with their goals. The ability to manage a caseload and develop a positive rapport with people is essential.

If you were already in this role, you might be doing some of these things this week:

Support facilitation of in-person, peer-support groups
Undertake assessment and action planning with individuals around “What Matters to Me”.
Manage and prioritise a caseload, based on the needs and priorities of the individuals as a follow-on from their attendance in the hub

To apply, you will need experience of facilitating groups and delivering group presentations, be educated to minimum NVQ Level 3, Advanced level or equivalent qualifications, and have completed a four-day PCI accredited health coaching training course or be willing to complete one prior to taking referrals.

As a vital member of our team and in return for your passion, empathy, and desire to support clients to lead healthier and happier lives in a non-judgemental way, we will provide a favourable salary of £25,580 pro-rata, excellent annual leave and sickness benefits, and will even give you the day off for your birthday! And you will join a passionate, inclusive, committed and welcoming workplace.
