Job Opportunity - Mental Health Policy Officer





Are you looking for an exciting new challenge where you can make a genuine difference to people’s lives? How about joining a team at Erewash Voluntary Action (EVA) as a Mental Health Policy Officer?

 

The Derbyshire Mental Health Forum joined EVA in October 2019 this enhances the 4 year project we ran in Erewash developing the mental health offer. The post holder will be responsible for the running of the Mental Health Forum and representing the voluntary sector at meetings across Southern Derbyshire.

 

If you are a self-motivated, dedicated ‘people-person’ whose passion is to support and empower the voluntary sector to enable them to play a key role in the development of mental health services,  you could be just what we are looking for.

 

Working alongside Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Derby and Derbyshire Clinical Commissioning Group the post holder will be responsible for sharing information both with and from the key meetings to enable the sector to better understand the local offer and for supporting organisations to develop their roles in mental health service delivery.


The post will be part of EVA’s core business.

 

Ideally you will have worked in a similar role before, but this position would also be suited to someone with good local knowledge, appropriate experience and enthusiasm. If you are proactive, enthusiastic, person-centred and hold a clean driving licence with unlimited access to a car, then we would love to hear from you.
