Description
Staff who work on inpatient mental health wards experience violence, verbal abuse and see patients harming themselves. They also hear about child abuse that patients have experienced in the past. Together, these experiences are known as ‘workplace trauma.’ The Workplace Trauma project is an NIHR grant exploring the effect of a workplace trauma support intervention on staff working on acute mental health wards. It is a collaboration between Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Manchester. The project’s Lead Investigator is Professor Katherine Berry.
The post holder will be based with the Research and Innovation Department at Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, which hosts a number of large mental health trials and other research studies. The post holder will also have close links with the University of Manchester, School of Health Sciences where the Lead Investigator is based. Both the Trust and the University place a very high value on collaborative working with service users and collaborate with service user groups locally and nationally to support a range of clinical and research initiatives.
We strive to be an inclusive research unit, and we welcome applicants from a diverse range of communities to apply for the post, including people from diverse ethnic communities, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and/or who identify as having a disability or as being neurodivergent.
We know that experiences of workplace trauma are more common for staff from Black, Asian, and other diverse ethnic communities, and we will be purposively sampling 50% of our participants from a range of minority groups. Experience of recruiting research participants from diverse communities that are often under-represented in research would therefore be beneficial for the role
Greater Manchester Mental Health (GMMH) Foundation Trust employs over 7000 members of staff, who deliver services from more than 122 locations.
We provide inpatient and community-based mental health care for people living in Bolton, the city of Manchester, Salford, Trafford and the borough of Wigan, and a wide range of specialist mental health and substance misuse services across Greater Manchester, the north west of England and beyond.
Greater Manchester is one of the world's most innovative, original and exciting places to live and work. From the beauty of the surrounding countryside to the heart of the vibrant inner city with great shopping, entertainment and dining options.
Wherever you go you will experience a great northern welcome with people famed for their warmth, humour and generosity.
Our people enjoy their work, have opportunities to learn and develop their skills and are encouraged to generate new ideas that improve care for our service users.
This 0.5 WTE post is funded until 31st May 2028. We will consider requests for flexible working arrangements, including job shares
