Description

This one-year fixed term post is a fantastic opportunity to support nurses working in all parts of our health and care system.

The role of the Career Navigator is to ensure that nurses can access quality career conversations to identify potential and raise awareness of opportunities to develop at all career stages.

This will include providing individual tailored coaching and promoting clear career paths to help people understand the available routes through which they can achieve success.

To do this, you will be a registered nurse with a keen desire to support staff retention across Cornwall's Health and Social Care sectors.

Resilience and excellent interpersonal and communication skills will be needed to successfully coach individuals through career transitions and build relationships with a range of stakeholders.

A key outcome measure for this post will be the ability to retain the skills of our existing nurses and help them build satisfying and sustainable careers here in Cornwall.

Based with CFT as part of the placement expansion team, you will work in collaboration with learning and development leads, Practice Educators and our new Legacy Mentors, plus clinicians and internal and external training providers.

We offer a supportive working environment and the opportunity to access training to develop your coaching and mentoring skills.

Secondments and flexible working are encouraged. Some travel will be required but you will be able to work from home when not on site.

We're an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people's physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.

We are a people organisation and people matter to us.

As part of the team, you'll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.

Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.

We work in people's homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals.

Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.

Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increases the numbers of people who use our services.
