However we would caution applicants not to rely too much on AI in drafting answers to application questions. We want to hear your authentic voice arising out of your experience, and we will be looking for answers that use examples and experiences that are specific to you.

Closing date 09/09/2025

1.  Job overview:

We are recruiting a Peer Involvement Worker to join the Involvement Team and become part of a vibrant and ambitious Lived Experience Workforce.  It is essential that applicants have personal lived experience of mental and emotional distress, and personal experience of accessing secondary care mental health services, or experience of caring for, or supporting someone who has. Please note that experience of working in mental health related services alone will not meet this criterion.

The Peer Involvement Worker will work primarily within the coproduction and involvement workstream, supporting the Trust to develop meaningful and impactful coproduction and involvement opportunities for people with lived experience of Trust services, their carers, family, and friends.

Through joining the Lived Experience Network, people with lived experience of Trust services are offered the opportunity to use their lived experience within activities that support the development and improvement of services. We refer to ‘service users and carers’ as Lived Experience Members, and people with lived experience of Trust services.

Involvement & Coproduction opportunities include involvement in recruitment and selection; lived experience networks and forums; sharing lived experience in staff training; co-delivering training; inspections of services; developing information; lived experience involvement in project and focus groups, committees, and governance meetings; reviewing and developing policies, procedures, and ways of working; service design, redesign, and transformation.

Career Progression pathways and development opportunities:

We are committed to getting the very best out of our staff and support staff in their career aspirations. We have career pathways available, where you will be able to develop your skills and build on your experience to progress into other roles across different specialties. Within the Involvement Team we offer a career pathway for a variety of lived experience roles from band 3 up to band 8a. 

2. Main duties of the role:

You will use your lived experience, peer support values and principles to support people with lived experience of Trust services to join the Lived Experience Network. The post holder will build connections with Lived Experience Members, gaining an understanding of their lived experience of services, their interests and what they would like to gain from taking part. You will use this knowledge to support members to become involved in activities that align with their lived experience, and to assist the Involvement Administrative Coordinator in reviewing expressions of interests and selecting members for opportunities.

The Peer Involvement Worker role involves supporting members in their involvement through 1 to 1 check-ins, training, group sessions, and by offering support before, during and after involvement activities. You will play a role in supporting the development and delivery of the Lived Experience Member Training & Support Framework.

The post holder will contact and visit teams and people in services to recruit new members and to develop staff awareness of involvement and coproduction. You will offer support to staff to plan, advertise, and run involvement activities with the aim of developing meaningful and impactful involvement.

Flexible working:

We are proud to offer agile and flexible working opportunities as part of our new ways of working, and we are happy to talk flexible working at the interview stage. In this role you will be able to work Monday to Friday in the time frames from 8am to 6pm, giving you the very best of good work life balance.
