Work with us at CWPT
At Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust (CWPT) there are around 3,800 of us working together to make a difference. The impact we make is because we're in it together, collaborating as an organisation, as a team, and with the people and communities we support.
It takes a special kind of person to be #TeamCWPT. It's not just about sharing our values of compassion, excellence, integrity, respect and collaboration. It's also about skill, commitment, resilience and sometimes a bit of guts to stand up for what is right on behalf of people who may not always have a voice themselves.
Our people are at the heart of the difference we make. Do you want to be too?
It can be challenging working here, but the rewards are amazing.
- Rebecca, Deputy Manager

We're specialists
We are specialists in what we do, and we're on a journey to create a brighter future for the people we support. We offer an opportunity to work in highly specialist areas and alongside experts in mental health, learning disability and autism, and children's services.
We're developing
We will empower you to go places, and if you want it, there are so many opportunities for professional and personal development for you to take hold of. We have teams dedicated to helping you to be your best self through training, and we work in partnership with local universities and colleges to deliver a wide range of qualifications.
We have you at our heart
We truly put people at our heart, and this includes you. You may work with people when they are at their most vulnerable, which can be challenging. Whatever is going on in your life, there are people you can talk to, and services you can access for structured therapies or independent or confidential advice for anything you need support with.
