Job description

About us

Momenta Newcastle is the delivery arm of Discover Momenta, initially set up to support people with Type 2 diabetes to lose weight and, where possible, achieve remission. We were commissioned by NHS England as one of only two organisations to deliver their Type 2 Diabetes Path to Remission programme (T2DR), formerly the NHS Low Calorie Diet (LCD) national pilot in a group format. We currently deliver T2DR in Birmingham and Solihull, North East & North Cumbria and Somerset. We have recently been awarded T2DR contracts in Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire. We deliver other Momenta programmes, including Weight Management and Cardiovascular disease (CVD) Prevention, programmes.

Discover Momenta, set up in 2013, is a leading developer of evidence-based, outcome driven, healthy lifestyle solutions. These condition-specific services help people negotiate the many day to day challenges they face in living healthier lives, with a focus on weight management. Our senior team have worked together for almost 20 years and our passion is to support and empower as many people as possible with our cutting-edge programmes – safely and affordably. Our worldclass behavioural interventions are delivered UK-wide in the heart of local communities by many different partners, as well as Momenta Newcastle. Our programmes’ excellent health outcomes were recognised by being highly commended at the Diabetes Quality in Care Awards 2020.

About the opportunity

We are now recruiting enthusiastic and suitably qualified Health and Wellbeing Coaches to deliver our NHS Type 2 Diabetes Pathway to Remission programme on a one-to-one (1:1), in-person setting to participants referred to us by their GP practices.

  • Benefit from our quality assurance processes and access to our team of specialists
