STAFF HEALTH & WELLBEING MANAGER

Department: Human Resources
Salary: Starting from £46,735, rising to £55,755
Closing date: Sunday 15 June 2025

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re seeking a credible and confident individual to drive positive staff health and wellbeing at the University of Bath. We are currently one of only 15 Universities to have been awarded the Universities Mental Health Charter, which recognises our whole university approach to mental health and wellbeing. You will build on these significant steps by leading on the staff facing elements of our “Be Well at Bath” initiative and acting as our Subject Matter Expert on staff wellbeing.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES WILL INCLUDE:

• Engaging and networking with staff, leaders, managers and experts across the university.
• Representing staff wellbeing in strategic meetings such as the Be Well Steering Group, Departmental Wellbeing Action Planning and Suicide Prevention Working Group to proactively develop actions and initiatives that enhance staff wellbeing.
• Developing and supporting the implementation of evidence-based wellbeing interventions for staff and leading on projects that enhance a healthy culture.
• Leading the communication plan for staff wellbeing; developing and updating intranet pages, writing blogs and articles and agreeing a wellbeing calendar of events.
• Leading a network of volunteer Staff Wellbeing Champions, supporting and cultivating this community of practice
• Providing training and other interventions, or sourcing these from external providers, to embed health and wellbeing approaches across the organisation.
  You’ll be based in the University’s Safety, Health and Employee Wellbeing Service which provides institution-wide professional guidance and support on general and specific health and wellbeing matters. This is not a counselling or mental health practitioner role, though on occasions you will work with individuals to signpost suitable support.
  This is a hybrid role with an expectation of 3 days per week on campus, although this may vary due to the consulting nature of the role and requirements of stakeholders.
