Job description

Health and social care are continuously changing, with big shifts happening now in how services are designed and delivered. You will join us at an exciting time to ensure the independent public voice is heard, making sure those services work with and for people. 

This is a challenging, exciting and varied role, line-managing a small team where your input really matters with an employer who is committed to flexible working.

Healthwatch is all about people - capturing the views of local people on their experiences of using services, taking this feedback to NHS leaders and other local decision-makers to improve care, now and in the future, to make a health and social care system that is made for and includes everyone.

In Somerset, the Healthwatch service is hosted by The Advocacy People, who would be your employer. The Advocacy People and Healthwatch share core values which are all about people’s voices: empowering people to speak up; amplifying service user voices; enabling people to participate in, and influence decision-making about health and social care; and provide information which helps people make informed decisions.

In this exciting role you will be

  • Leading our feedback gathering activities to ensure that people’s views and experiences of health and social care are captured, listened to and taken account of by decision makers in Somerset at a key time of change and development.
  • Developing and leading engagement activities and projects with a wide range of communities in Somerset including those seldom heard or marginalised.
  • Line managing and enhancing the leadership of the local Healthwatch team.

We are looking for someone with the creativity and enthusiasm to engage with people and take their experience of health and care services to help improve and shape services across Somerset.

This role is initially fixed term to 31st March 2028 but with a view to becoming permanent.  Ideally, we are looking for someone with experience of working collaboratively in a team in a health or social care role, with great communication and organising skills. The role is home-based with frequent travel within Somerset, attending meetings and events.

The hours are Monday to Friday with very occasional weekend or evening work.

As this role is home-based but with regular travel, you will need a full driving licence and your own transport, with full business cover insurance,  as well as good mobile and internet connections and flexibility with working hours.
