Manchester Public Health Development Service is looking for Health Trainers. Experience of living with a long-term condition like HIV or voluntary work is useful in this type of job.
This may be a good opportunity to get back into paid work again. Part-time and full-time health trainers are wanted.
Here are the job details:
Do you like working with people out in the community? Would you like to help others find ways to improve their health and well being? Are you target driven and outcome focused? Are you keen to develop your skills? Then why not become one of a new team of Health Trainers working in Manchester?
As a Health Trainer, you will work with local people to improve health and well-being. You will be someone who is interested in health and who has some understanding of the difficulties people can face in making healthier choices.
