Community Health Coach
Join us on our journey to empower over a million people to change their behaviours and thrive!
At Thrive Tribe we deliver award-winning healthy lifestyle and wellbeing programmes that make people happier and healthier! It’s a super exciting time to join us as we begin to deliver our Integrated Health and Wellbeing Service (IHWS) throughout the City of Nottingham, and we’re looking for a team of Community Health Coaches to join us!
Our IHWS programme is designed to support individuals and families to improve their health behaviours and make sustainable changes to their lifestyle. The programme consists of five key services:
- Stop smoking support
- Tailored physical activity programmes
- Adult weight management
- Child/family weight management
- Health Coaching (this is where you come in!)
The purpose of a health coach is to improve lives, through empowering people to make effective long-term changes. This is achieved through successfully delivering our quality programmes and providing evidence-based information, supporting individuals to improve their overall health and wellbeing (including moving more, eating better, stopping smoking and providing onwards referrals where appropriate, such as for mental wellbeing support!).
Like all roles at Thrive Tribe, you can expect your time at work to be fun, varied and challenging. We don’t like to stick to a firm JD as we know from experience that things change throughout the lifetime of a role and it gives our people the chance to play to their strengths.
A typical day as a Community Health Coach might include:
- Motivating, inspiring and supporting individuals to adopt a healthier lifestyle, through a professional, knowledgeable and empathetic approach
- Delivering evidence-based interventions that focus on diet, nutrition, physical activity, smoking cessation and behaviour change
- Co-producing personalised plans with individuals, empowering them to take control of their own healthy lifestyle choices, and providing information and resources that support them to achieve their desired outcomes
- Ensuring an excellent and safe experience for clients, aligning with our internal policies and procedures
- Referring into our other pathways and where appropriate signposting to external support services
- Engaging in ongoing training relevant to your role, including submitting your annual CPD portfolio and evidencing professional development in line with our CPD policy
- Working with colleagues across all of our Thrive Tribe services to contribute to new projects and service developments – we’re always looking to share knowledge and resources!
- Ensuring due consideration is given to Information Governance and Clinical Governance legislation, requirements and guidance
- Helping us maintain the ethos of Thrive Tribe by driving our organisational culture forward across our services and using every opportunity to embed our values!
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
About you…

Be happy
You recognise the power of a smile. You value a fun, supportive workplace and want to come to work raring to go (check out our rating on Glassdoor).

We’re looking for someone who can combine health improvement knowledge with first-class communication and motivational skills.
