Senior Improvement Practitioner- Shaping the Future of Mental Health Care in Kent

Join Kent and Medway Mental Health Trust on a transformative journey and make a real difference!

KMMH is embarking on its biggest improvement journey and working alongside our system colleagues we are shaping the agenda of care for Mental Health, learning disability, and autism across the county.

This Senior Improvement Practitioner role is an exciting opportunity to work with an amazing team to deliver an agenda and really make a difference to our patients, services users, carers and our people.


Main duties of the job

You will deliver this as part of our 'Doing Well Together' improvement programme. We are a performing team looking to continuously improve our approach to delivering change within KMMH.

In addition to utilising your programme management skills to focus on this specific strategic project, we are looking for someone who will actively contribute to the development of our PMO. In return, our environment will also enable you to broaden your skillset working alongside and supporting delivery of capability development, strategy deployment and the improvement management system.

There will be inter-site working across Kent and Medway so a full, valid UK driving licence would be highly desirable.


About us

We are Kent and Medway Mental Health NHS Trust. We care for the mental health and wellbeing of people across Kent and Medway and are rated 'Good' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

Our teams support children, young people and adults with a wide range of mental health needs. We also provide specialist services, including all-age eating disorder services and neurodevelopmental assessments for children and young people, such as autism and ADHD.

Because we work across the whole county and across hospital and community settings, we can make care more joined up and easier to access for the people we serve.

Our vision is simple: we are here to help communities not just live with mental illness, but live well. It's why we're passionate about working with communities to make mental health care better for everyone. Everything we do is guided by our values: caring, inclusive, curious and confident.

Join us if you share our passion for better mental health care and want to be part of a team that's working well together.

At KMMH, we are serious about diversity and inclusion, and we are working hard to build this into our DNA. We warmly welcome applications for any of our roles from people from diverse backgrounds, and we are proactively encouraging applications from under-represented communities for our more senior roles, like this one.
