Job Description
Health and Social Care Coordinator
Margaret Clitherow Trust (MCT; Reg Charity No. (phone number removed)) seeks to recruit a further professional with a health and/or social care background to tackle health inequalities and ensure the most vulnerable in our society can access the care they need. This is a great opportunity to be part of a supportive and relaxed multi-disciplinary team, undertaking challenging and highly interesting work.
Our vision:
MCT was founded in partnership with, and for the benefit of, Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities. We believe in a world where everyone is included and afforded respect, dignity and justice. There must be no exceptions on account of ethnicity, religion, gender, disability, sexuality, social background – or indeed anything else. We believe that this full inclusion is possible for Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities and we look forward to being part of a society where this is realised.
Purpose and duties:
Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities have the poorest health outcomes out of any ethnic groups in the UK, including in relation to child mortality, suicide rates and life expectancy (House of Commons, 2019). Our communities face multi-faceted barriers to accessing statutory services. To that end, we are recruiting a Health and Social Care Coordinator to:
• Work within a collaborative, multi-disciplinary team to empower and meet the needs of clients.
• Work with individuals and families who have complex health and social care needs, advocating for them, and empowering them to navigate healthcare and social care systems.
• Develop strong relationships with health and social care providers to tackle health inequalities and get the best outcomes for our communities and clients.
Person specification:
The successful candidate will be committed to achieving excellent outcomes for clients and be aligned with the vision and values of the charity. They will be warm and compassionate, yet also able to demonstrate healthy boundaries and professionalism. They will have experience of successful work with vulnerable people and an understanding of health and social care systems. They will be able to demonstrate excellent verbal and written communication, in addition to sound IT skills. They will have resilience – and a sense of humour is also a must!
Please note that we are looking for potential as much as experience in our recruitment.
Working at MCT:
We believe our team are our greatest asset, placing a premium on staff welfare and providing staff excellent professional development opportunities for people to take forward in their careers. Everyone demonstrates a personal commitment to serving others and working towards our vision. We are a relaxed and collaborative team, with a big sense of humour.
Start date: ASAP
Location: Hybrid with some home working. Office at Badgemore Park, Henley on Thames, Oxfordshire. Some visits to clients throughout parts of Southern England.
Job type: Part time, 0.4fte, 16 hours p.w.
Salary: £11,457p.a. (£28,643 fte.)
