Head of Family and Carer Voice (Prisoner Healthcare) Job in London
Job Description
Would you like a role where you can create systemic change in prison healthcare?
If you can engage with people from all backgrounds, have an impeccable instinct for how a message will land, and a collaborative and encouraging management style, we want to hear from you.
This is an opportunity to lead the delivery of the very first Patient and Public Voice service for the families of patients in London prisons. Your role will be pivotal in championing the voices of families to influence, challenge and change how prison healthcare services are delivered across London. A strategic thinker and superb communicator, you will be able to both engage and empathise with families with diverse needs and experiences, while working collaboratively with senior stakeholders from the NHS and prison service. This is a challenging role, however your tenacity and determination for change will drive you forward.
Lived experience of the criminal justice system (either directly or as a family member or carer) is desirable for this post but not essential. DBS check and prison vetting will be required for the successful applicant.
Organisation:
Pact is a highly respected independent charity, working across England and Wales to develop and deliver a range of innovative services. We provide practical and emotional support to prisoner’s children and families, to prisoners and those who have resettled back into the community. Our work is founded on core values, the first of which is a belief in the innate dignity of every human being, and our work focusses on human relationships, family and community. We are committed to achieving high standards of quality in all that we do.
Other information:
Pact is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from all backgrounds including those who have previous convictions (appointment to post is subject to a risk assessment). This post is subject to a 6 month probationary period, verification of identity and proven right to work in the UK, satisfactory HMPPS/ MoJ Security Prison Vetting, satisfactory employer references covering a minimum of 3 years and a satisfactory enhanced DBS. Please note that being bankrupt or having County Court Judgements may affect your ability to be successfully vetted to work in a prison.
About us:
Pact (the Prison Advice & Care Trust) is a pioneering national charity that provides caring and life changing services to men and women in prison, to people with convictions on release and in the community, and to their children and families.
Pact’s vision is of a society in which justice is understood as a process of restoration and healing, in which prisons are used sparingly and as places of learning and rehabilitation, and in which the innate dignity and worth of every human being is valued. We work for the common good of Society, taking a public health-based approach. We work at the intersection of criminal justice, child and family welfare, mental health, wellbeing provision and health & social care.
Our volunteers and staff can be found in courts, prisons, probation services, and in communities across England & Wales. We are a diverse, inclusive, modern, and collaborative charity. We build effective partnerships and sustainable solutions based on our well-established understanding of the systems in which we work, and on our historic values and ethos developed through our 120+ years of service delivery.
