Healthier Bank Practitioner - North West

Join us on our journey to empower over a million people to change their behaviours and thrive!

At Thrive Tribe we deliver award‑winning healthy lifestyle and wellbeing programmes that make people happier and healthier. It’s a really exciting time to join us as we continue to deliver the Heathier You NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme (NDPP) throughout North West London and we’re looking for a team of passionate health coaches (or Diabetes Prevention Practitioners) to join us on a casual basis as part of our bank team!

The purpose of a health coach is to improve lives, through empowering people to make effective long‑term changes that halt or reverse the progression of Type 2 Diabetes. This is achieved through successfully delivering our quality programmes and providing evidence‑based information, supporting individuals to improve their health, lose weight and ultimately lower their risk of developing diabetes.

Typical day as a Health Coach might include:

• Delivering evidence‑based group sessions that focus on diet, nutrition, physical activity and behaviour change. Both running your own groups and also covering sessions for other health coaches as required
• Facilitating group intervention sessions to support your clients in achieving their goals and cultivating a safe and positive environment
• Promoting the Healthier You NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme internally and externally, and improving referral pathways between other services and partner organisations
• Engaging in ongoing training relevant to your role, such as Behaviour Change Level 1 and 2
• Working towards criteria and targets established within the National Diabetes Prevention Programmes (NDPP) quality assurance framework, including all Clinical Governance procedures
• Working with colleagues across all of our Thrive Tribe services to contribute to new projects and service developments – we’re always looking to share knowledge and resources!
• Ensuring due consideration and adherence to our internal Thrive Tribe policies, including Information Governance, Safeguarding and Complaints procedures
• Helping us maintain the ethos of Thrive Tribe by driving our organisational culture forward across our services and using every opportunity to embed our values!
• Transporting equipment, such as scales to and from various community venues.

We are looking for someone who can combine health improvement knowledge with first‑class communication and motivational skills.

• Experience delivering group‑based interventions
• Understanding of how personal characteristics and circumstances influence health behaviours
• Fluency in Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Urdu, Spanish, or British Sign Language is a plus but not essential
• Willingness to work flexible hours including evenings and weekends
• Ability to work independently or as part of a team, meet targets and contribute to the development of services
• Patient, adaptable, and a positive attitude towards others
• Motivated and driven to succeed and to make a difference

We hire based on attitude over traditional skills, so if you lack some experience but feel you are right for the job, we would love to hear from you.

• Flexible working – life/work balance
• Tailored health and wellbeing support
• Rewards portal offering discounts on shops, restaurants, and days out
• Access to Mental Health First Aid and many other training and development courses

Zero hours contract.

£14 – £20 per hour.

This is a hybrid‑remote role. No office base; requires home working and regular travel across North West London.

We believe that every person has the right to thrive at work, which is why we are committed to equal employment opportunity and will not discriminate. Should you require any specific accommodations in the recruitment process please let us know.
