Research Assistant (Workplace Trauma Support)
Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust View all jobs
Posted 2 day(s) ago
Reference: 2448827
Job summary
The Workplace Trauma project is an NIHR grant exploring the effect of a workplace trauma support intervention on staff working on acute mental health wards. The post holder will be based within the Research and Innovation Department at Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, which hosts a number of large mental health trials and other research studies. The post holder will also have close links with the University of Manchester, School of Health Sciences where the Lead Investigator is based. Both the Trust and the University place a very high value on collaborative working with service users and collaborate with service user groups locally and nationally to support a range of clinical and research initiatives.
We strive to be an inclusive research unit, and we welcome applicants from a diverse range of communities to apply for the post, including people from diverse ethnic communities, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and/or who identify as having a disability or as being neurodivergent. We know that experiences of workplace trauma are more common for staff from Black, Asian, and other diverse ethnic communities, and we will be purposively sampling 50% of our participants from a range of minority groups. Experience of recruiting research participants from diverse communities that are often under-represented in research would therefore be beneficial for the role, as would experience of working on acute mental health inpatient wards.
Main duties of the job
The post holder will work as part of a team to recruit and complete assessments with staff and patients on mental health inpatient wards. The project is a collaboration between Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Manchester. The project's Lead Investigator is Professor Katherine Berry.

Job summary
We are seeking an experienced and compassionate children's nurse or midwife to join the West and North London ICB Child Death Review team. This is a highly sensitive and emotionally demanding role, providing skilled coordination and support following the death of a baby, child or young person. The post holder will meet bereaved parents and families, sometimes in their homes, and will offer a consistent, accessible point of contact throughout the child death review process.
You will communicate complex and potentially distressing information with empathy, clarity and professional sensitivity. You will help families navigate what happens after their child has died, ensure their questions and views are heard, and signpost them to bereavement, practical, advocacy and other specialist support. You will also provide feedback at appropriate stages and advocate for the family's voice within the child death review process.
About the role
Act as a key worker or named contact for bereaved families, providing compassionate, individualised support.
Coordinate Child Death Review Meetings and contribute to Joint Agency Responses and Child Death Overview Panel processes.
Gather and interpret complex information from health, local authority, police, coroner and other partner agencies
Main duties of the job
You will be a Registered Children's Nurse or Registered Midwife with current NMC registration with substantial experience of working in the NHS with children and families in a specialist setting, such as acute paediatrics, neonatal or maternity care, hospice care, health visiting, school nursing or community services.
Experience of the child death review procedures and of supporting children and families through grief, bereavement or other highly distressing circumstances is particularly relevant. Emotional resilience is essential. The role involves regular exposure to traumatic information and direct contact with families at an exceptionally difficult time. You will need to balance warmth and compassion with professional boundaries, confidentiality, safeguarding responsibilities and attention to your own wellbeing.
Working closely with the Senior Manager Nurse, Designated Lead Nurse and Designated Doctor for Child Death Review, this is an opportunity to make a meaningful difference to bereaved families while helping multi-agency professionals learn from every child's death and improve services for children and young people. If you are a compassionate
and experienced practitioner who can combine sensitive family support with effective multi-agency coordination, we would welcome your application.

Reference: 2448806
Job summary
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced and motivated Clinical Specialist Occupational Therapist to join the Learning Disability inpatient service at Bankfields Court in Middlesbrough.
This is a key clinical leadership role, providing highly specialist occupational therapy assessment and intervention for people with complex needs. The successful candidate will work autonomously while being an integral member of the multidisciplinary team, supporting person-centred care, positive risk-taking, recovery, independence and wellbeing. The role includes responsibility for a highly complex occupational therapy caseload and the provision of specialist advice, guidance and clinical leadership to colleagues. The post holder will provide evidence-based occupational therapy assessment and interventions as part of the OT Pathway linked and offer input to individuals, their families and carers, in learning disability inpatient services. The ability to engage and communicate with individuals with complex learning disabilities as well as the parents/family/carers and system around them is essential.
Main duties of the job
The role will include clinical supervision and leadership for the Occupational Therapy Assistant, helping to develop the role, clarify responsibilities and support high-quality occupational therapy practice across the service. The postholder will attend OT Learning and Governance Networks to ensure fidelity to core OT delivery, enhance CPD and contribute to the wider OT service developments. The post holder will access wider support from the occupational therapy network in the occupational therapy learning disability community teams in TEWV, to develop a way of delivering a high quality, needs-led OT service, utilising core occupational therapy skills to ensure all of the people we work with have a robust occupational therapy assessment and intervention plan in place.
Although Bankfields Court will remain your priority service, there will be an opportunity to use the Intensive Support Team base at Lancaster House, Stockton, as an office base when needed to provide valuable access to peer support, professional networking and opportunities for collaborative working. Where clinical activity within Bankfields Court allows, there may also be opportunities to contribute to work within the IST while maintaining Bankfields Court as the primary focus of the role.
We are looking for an occupational therapist who can demonstrate compassionate and collective leadership, sound clinical judgement and a commitment to evidence-based practice, co-production and continuous improvement.
About us
We are the Mental Health and Learning Disability NHS Trust for Country Durham and Darlington, Teesside, North Yorkshire, York and Selby.
