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 super exciting time to join us to deliver our Integrated Health and Wellbeing Service (IHWS) throughout the City of Nottingham, and we’re looking for a Physical Activity Practitioner to join the team!
Our IHWS programme is designed to support individuals and families to improve their health behaviours and make sustainable changes to their lifestyle. The programme consists of five key services;
* Stop smoking support
* Tailored physical activity programmes (this is where you come in!)
* Adult weight management
* Child/family weight management
* Health Coaching
Residents across the City of Nottingham will be able to benefit from a variety of our established pathways and products, including Gloji, Slimming World and MAN v FAT Football. In addition to this, we will be using a co-production approach to coordinate and deliver targeted physical activity programmes to priority groups within the community.
Like all roles at Thrive Tribe, you can expect your time at work to be fun, varied and challenging. We don’t like to stick to a firm JD as we know from experience that things change throughout the lifetime of a role and it gives our people the chance to play to their strengths.
A typical day as a Physical Activity Practitioner might include:
* Developing and delivering a range of group interventions that focus on supporting clients to increase their physical activity levels
* Offering support and guidance on making healthy lifestyle choices, using behaviour change techniques
* Motivating, inspiring and supporting individuals to move more and adopt a healthier lifestyle, through a professional, knowledgeable and empathetic approach
* Supporting the Physical Activity Lead with identifying gaps in local provision and developing new and innovative physical activity opportunities for clients
* Working closely with the wider Nottingham IHWS team and partner organisations to ensure clients continue to receive the most suitable support
* Ensuring an excellent and safe experience for clients, aligning with our internal policies and 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 is given to Information Governance and Clinical Governance legislation, requirements and guidance
* 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!

Perks…
Every person makes Thrive Tribe the incredible place it is to work and play together, we’re unstoppable. Within our buzzing environment our talented people work hard but we ensure lots of fun is thrown in too! We offer you;
* Regular team events and activities, including ThriveFest and our annual Challenge Weekend (for those who want to put their fitness to the test!)

* Tailored health and wellbeing support such as access to life coaching
