As part of our newly established People & Culture Directorate, we are seeking an ambitious and forward-thinking Rostering Manager to lead our Trust-wide rostering service and workforce deployment function. This is a key leadership role responsible for ensuring our rostering systems, processes, and workforce intelligence support the delivery of safe, effective, and efficient patient care across the organisation.

Working closely with nursing, medical, operational, digital, and workforce colleagues, you will play a pivotal role in helping services maximise workforce utilisation, improve roster quality, enhance compliance, and support safer staffing decisions.

Driving compliance with Agenda for Change, Medical and Dental Terms and Conditions, Working Time Regulations, and Trust rostering standards.
Optimising eRostering systems to support safe staffing and operational effectiveness.
Using workforce data, KPIs, and rostering intelligence to support decision-making and service improvement.

We are a supportive and inclusive organisation that values its people. We offer development opportunities, flexible working, and a strong focus on wellbeing. As a Disability Confident and equal opportunities employer, we welcome applicants from all backgrounds and experiences.

Join us and help shape the future of care in West Essex.

We are looking for a credible and collaborative leader with:

A current or previous professional registration with the NMC, HCPC, GMC, or GPhC.
Significant experience leading rostering, staffing, workforce deployment, or operational workforce services.
Strong knowledge of safer staffing principles, workforce planning, and roster governance.
Experience of eRostering systems, workforce reporting, and performance management.
Proven ability to influence senior clinicians, managers, and operational teams.
A commitment to delivering excellent services through compassionate, inclusive leadership.
