Wellbeing Adjustments Advisor

The Wellbeing Adjustment Advisor will advise and support managers and staff to implement timely, appropriate workplace adjustments in line with the Equality Act 2010 and Trust policies. Reporting to the Staff Wellbeing Manager, the role works closely with People Services, Occupational Health, EDI and Staff Side to help deliver Trust-wide wellbeing and inclusion strategies and foster psychologically safe, inclusive workplaces.

You will be the primary contact for employees needing adjustments, with a focus on those with health conditions, disabilities or long-term needs. Responsibilities include providing tailored training and coaching for line managers and teams on supporting colleagues, understanding legal duties, and applying reasonable adjustments.

A key element is designing and delivering workshops and resources that build resilience, reduce stress and promote proactive wellbeing management—encouraging regular wellbeing conversations, early identification of stress or health issues, and confident adjustment decisions to support retention and health.

This is a fixed-term post funded externally until December 2026 (12 months). It is advertised as fixed term/secondment with potential to become permanent in the future.

The Wellbeing Adjustment Advisor will play a pivotal role in strengthening the organisation’s approach to staff wellbeing and inclusion. This includes aligning with the NHS People Plan priorities, particularly the "We Are Safe and Healthy" theme, and supporting the implementation of WWL’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Strategy.

A key focus of the role is to support staff to remain well and productive at work, particularly those with health conditions, disabilities, or long-term needs. The postholder will provide advice and guidance on workplace adjustments, ensuring they are timely, appropriate, and compliant with the Equality Act 2010. By fostering inclusive practices and reducing discrimination, the Advisor will help create a psychologically safe and supportive working environment.

Through proactive engagement, training, and coaching, the Advisor will empower managers and teams to confidently hold wellbeing conversations, spot early signs of stress or health issues, and implement adjustments that support staff retention, wellbeing, and performance.
