Occupational Health Advisor

Sefton Council is a vibrant local authority on a journey of aspiration and ambition as it works towards delivering its exciting Vision 2030.

Sefton is a diverse and exciting borough where people can enjoy a great work / life balance. It encompasses world renowned nature reserves, accessible business and retail centres, top class leisure facilities and some of the best coastal and countryside positions in the country. With excellent transport networks to Liverpool and links to Manchester, it is an ideal location for accessing the Northwest and beyond.   

Supporting the health and wellbeing of our workforce is important to us and we are committed to ensuring Council and school colleagues have access to a range of specific services one of which is an in-house Occupational Health Advisor.  We are seeking the services of a committed and enthusiastic Occupational Health Advisor with a Nursing Qualification, registered with the UKCC, and specific experience in an occupational health setting.

The role will report to the Health Unit Manager. Whilst this is a well-established service, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to assist with the development and promotion of the service and contribute to Sefton’s commitment as set out in the Workforce and Wellbeing Strategy.

This is a permanent full-time vacancy in our Occupational Health Unit which is part of the Council’s Corporate HR provision based within a quiet, welcoming and dedicated area of Magdalen House, Bootle.

There may be a requirement to work at other locations across the borough as and when the need arises, and some working from home may be arranged dependent upon operational requirements.

We are happy to have an informal chat about the role and how it fits with other health and wellbeing services that we offer.  If you feel you have the skills and experience we need and would like to learn more about this exciting and hugely rewarding opportunity then please call Russell Taylor on 0151 934 3650 or email Russell.Taylor@sefton.gov.uk to arrange a mutually convenient time.
