I joined Optima in February 2020 after seeing an advert for a Trainee Occupational Health role. I had always wanted to work in Occupational Health but struggled to find a company that would employ me without the specialist qualification. I started the role, working on an NHS contract and was able to get involved with clinics, management referrals and contract meetings. It has been extremely varied, but I have really enjoyed it. Although the pandemic hit, I felt well supported by my managers and colleagues, we had regular updates and some amazing wellbeing events. Accepting the role was the best decision I made as I clicked with Occupational Health. I was lucky enough to get a place on the SCPHN -OH and participating in the GROW course has given me a good grounding. An opportunity arose to apply for the clinical performance manager role and I was selected for the role. I am currently thriving on the challenge of learning a new role and broadening my knowledge within the Occupational Health setting. I feel lucky and proud to work for a company that is forward thinking, supportive, encourages development and recognises the skills and talents you have as an individual to bring to the role.

Clinical Performance Manager

I joined the Optima Health family as an Occupational Health Advisor in October 2018 after working in Occupational Health for three years with a smaller company. From my first day every member of staff I interacted with were all friendly, supportive, and encouraging. I was able to work across a range of contracts which gave me good variety and opportunity to enhance my skills, from management referrals to medicals. The company are very inclusive of their staff and this shows with regular updates from our CEO, HR team and the staff benefits. I have been supported with completing my OH qualification and have also been given an amazing opportunity to progress in my career as I am now one of the Clinical Lead OHA’s for one of our largest contracts. I feel very fortunate to work for Optima Health and I would encourage anyone who is thinking about applying for any of our roles to do so, as it is a fantastic company to work for.

Lead OHA North West & Central Route
Occupational Health Advisor

I joined what was to become Optima Health in 2006, from being a relatively new counsellor in private practice. Over my time here I have worked in a variety of interesting roles such as on the Employee Assistance helpline as an advisor, telephone counsellor, in an occupational health role, delivering presentations, working on bids for new business and supporting organizations and clients all over the uk for their staff training, assisting in the aftermath of traumatic events. Due to the size and reputation of Optima Health, many of these interactions have been related to nationally newsworthy events. I have found the mixture of quality governed clinical work with my individual clients, as well as involvement in mental health matters at a national level to be a collection of experiences I’m so happy to have been able to take part in since my initial days with Optima. Presenting training to staff in No 10 Downing Street was a highlight! I could certainly never have expected such a broad range of fabulous experiences if I’d just stayed in private practice, and it’s certainly changed me as a person and clinical practitioner. I’m now a Clinical Performance Manager, looking after a team of counsellors, and I’m enjoying working with them in my new role. I know they’re going to have as many opportunities to undertake as many, or more, brilliant experiences as I have!

Clinical Performance Manager – Mental Health (North)

I started working for Optima Health in October 2020 as an Occupational Health Advisor and my experience has been a very positive one as it gives me the flexibility, I require for a better work life balance. My induction was thorough, and it was tailored around my learning needs. I have a supportive manager who listens to me and makes me feel valued and part of the team. My colleagues are also very approachable, and eager to help where required. There are many opportunities to develop and grow within the business and my career.

Karen E.
Occupational Health Advisor (North)

I joined Optima Health in August 2019 as an Occupational Health Advisor. Up to this date my experience within Occupational Health had all been with the NHS and as such I was nervous about jumping ship into the unknown!!!!. For me this was the best decision, within 6 months of starting with the business I was given a seconded opportunity as a Clinical Performance Manager (CPM) and now 14 months on I am a well-established and thoroughly enjoying my role. If you are looking for a company who appreciate you, for who you are and the skills you can bring to the team then look no further. Remember “the grass is as green as you make it”.
