Summary
We are looking to expand our pool of Bank HR Investigating Officers to support the delivery of high-quality employment investigations across the Trust.
This is a flexible opportunity ideal for experienced professionals who can undertake complex, sensitive investigations on an ad-hoc basis. You will play a key role in ensuring investigations are conducted fairly, thoroughly, and in line with Trust policies, supporting effective and timely decision-making.
The post holder will carry out investigations in accordance with the Disciplinary Policy and Grievance Policy.
The post holder will be accountable for ensuring that the investigations are undertaken to a high standard, are concise but include all relevant information and are completed within the required timeframes. The outcome of each investigation will include a report which will confirm if evidence is found to support the allegations being investigated.
The investigator will meet with all witnesses and respondents to gather the facts of the issues raised.
Investigation formats include a potentially highly sensitive range of interviews/meetings which are held with any staff involved. Investigators will be required to demonstrate the ability to manage each scenario sensitively.
The investigator will be required to present the findings to the Commissioning/Case Manager to enable them to determine what actions they wish to take following completion of the investigation.
The investigator will assist with providing training to managers on elements of the disciplinary process.
We’re an NHS community and mental health provider Trust based in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. We deliver community and hospital-based care to improve people’s physical and mental health. We also provide specialist support to people with dementia or a learning disability.
We are a people organisation and people matter to us. As part of the team, you’ll help support the health and wellbeing of the people who live and visit this beautiful part of the UK.
Over 4,000 people make up the Trust. This includes doctors, nurses, therapists, plus admin and support staff.
We work in people’s homes, in community clinics and bases. Some staff work from one of our 13 community hospitals. Our aspiration is to have great people, provide great care, be a great place to work and a great partner.
Approximately 568,000 people live here. A third of people who live in Cornwall are supported by acute hospital services in Devon. As a result, we also work closely with our partners in Devon. In the summer, and during other holidays lots of people choose to visit the area. This increase the numbers of people who use out services.
