The successful candidate will bring significant experience of working within Mental Health services, a strong understanding of patient safety, governance and investigation methodologies, and the ability to provide expert clinical challenge and insight. You will play a key role in supporting regional learning from homicide investigations, public inquiries and wider Mental Health reviews, helping to strengthen quality improvement and reduce future harm across the system.

About us
NHS England has a wide range of statutory functions, responsibilities and regulatory powers. These are focused on supporting the wider NHS to deliver high quality care, as well as doing those things that are best done once for the whole NHS.
Our staff bring expertise across clinical, operational, commissioning, technology, data science, cyber security, software engineering, education, and commercial specialisms -- enabling us to design and deliver high-quality NHS services.
In March 2025, the Government announced that NHS England and the Department of Health and Social Care will increasingly merge functions, ultimately leading to NHS England being fully integrated into the department.
If you currently work within the NHS and if successful at interview, we will initiate an Inter Authority Transfer (IAT) via the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).This retrieves key data from your current or previous NHS employer to support onboarding, including competency status, Continuous Service Dates (CSD), and annual leave entitlement. You may opt out at any stage of the process.
Colleagues with a contractual office base are expected to spend, on average, at least 40% of their time working in our offices.

Job summary
Please note that this role covers Devon and Cornwall. The Weston Super Mare address is an admin base and regular travel there is NOT required.
The Southwest Op Courage Veterans Mental Health Service operates across the entire Southwest and has an admin base in Weston-Super-Mare. The service, one of six national NHS England commissioned Op Courage services, is delivered by Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust.

The pathway starts with a comprehensive needs-led conversation and is followed by evidence-based interventions/treatment for a wide range of need and complexity, from the early signs of mental health problems through to complex mental health difficulties and psychological trauma.
The service is delivered via a hybrid model which includes using clinical spaces, hot-desks and homeworking. Clinical appointments are delivered face to face or virtually, so some lone working will be required. The postholder will also be expected to attend face-to-face team meetings and Trust training which will be within the Op Courage footprint but may be outside their usual working area.
Main duties of the job
- To contribute to the achievement of corporate and Strategic objectives by leading effective operational management of the Team under your responsibility.
- To take management responsibility for the operational delivery of services across your nominated responsibility and to ensure safe and effective services for service users.
- To liaise at a local level with Service Users, Carers, Staff and Partners.
- To be responsible for the delivery of Health and Safety responsibilities as required by statute, regulation, legal obligation and Trust policies.
- To ensure full compliance of all staff within the area of operational management, to support the clinical delivery of safe and affective services, incident reporting, serious incident review and complaints.
- To contribute to and take specific leadership responsibility for service redesign promoting the development of practice in line with national policies and evidence base.
- To ensure involvement of the area of operational management in service planning, delivery, choice, and governance.
- To undertake investigations of serious incidents, complaints, disciplinary and grievances across the LDU when required.
- To ensure that meaningful staff involvement takes place within the area managed so that commitment and ownership are maximised and staff have the opportunity, where possible, to influence service provision.
