Barchester Healthcare is a market leader in providing exceptional quality care to residents and patients across our rapidly expanding portfolio of over 240 care homes and independent hospitals.

Integral to Barchester Healthcare's growth strategy, is the delivery of a portfolio of new homes mainly situated in the South of England. An absolutely fundamental strand of this strategy is ensuring that all of the new homes are fully staffed with a highly skilled workforce who are fully compliant and who also have the motivation and people skills to deliver a high quality, premium experience to the residents we support.

The New Builds Trainer will work with the New Builds Project Team, Learning and Development, all support functions linking with the Divisional Training and Compliance Manager to successfully deliver and co-ordinate all training to often demanding timelines. They will subsequently roll out this approach to all further new builds, applying lessons learned from all previous homes continuing to work with each New Home up to and after they are fully operational. The role will also include supporting established Homes/Hospitals to meet induction and refresher statutory and mandatory training requirements.

Barchester's commitment to staff engagement and development has resulted in us being the only care provider in the UK to be accredited as one of the best companies to work for in 2019, 2020, and 2021.

As one of the initial points of contact between Barchester and a new member of staff, our Trainers should demonstrate passion for their role and the Barchester ethos. This varied position will provide the opportunity to witness the skilled progression of staff from their first day, throughout their Barchester career.
