Summary
The Race Equity Governance Project Manager role is critical to the Trusts ongoing commitment to race equity. The Post Holder will support the mainstreaming of PCREF principles by ensuring robust governance, timely reporting, and effective coordination of the Trusts race equity structures. This includes supporting the Race Equity Assurance Group and Joint Working Groups [JWGs] and enabling compliance with national expectations through high-quality administrative and stakeholder support. The Trusts Partnership Governance arrangements developed during the Pilot phase were particularly commended and a write up of them was published as an exemplar during the launch of the PCREF in 2023. At the heart of the Governance is what we termed Triple Leadership. This means the perspectives of all three constituencies must always be heard, balanced and equally influential. The constituencies are (i) Current Service Users and their Carers; (ii) Community members of the Independent Advisory Groups; (iii) Staff including senior management as well as the staff groups affected by the changes proposed. This Triple Leadership model is reflected in the make-up of all the Groups and their Leadership arrangements. A further requirement of the Governance model is that all proposals from the JWGs must demonstrably have the involvement in a bi-directional way within each constituencys wider membership. The postholder will play a pivotal role in supporting the coordination and governance of the Trusts Race Equity programme. This includes facilitating the Joint Working Groups and Race Equity Assurance Group and supporting the development and monitoring of co-produced Borough-Level Race Equity Action Plans. The postholder will ensure effective scheduling, stakeholder liaison, and documentation management to uphold high standards of governance and inclusivity.
