The Health, Safety and Wellbeing Team are looking to recruit two committed individuals to become part of the University Mobile First Aid Service (MFAS). The MFAS is comprised of voluntary members of staff who play a vital role in assisting the University in implementing its first aid arrangements by attending First Aid callouts across campus during working hours when a Local First Aider isn't available.
You will be provided with First Aid at Work training, a radio, medical kit and, if you are a driver, access to drive the team’s MFAS vehicle. You will also receive an annual First Aider allowance and an extra day's annual leave (after one year's service).
The team currently operates a Primary Watch/Buddy system and there is a minimum requirement of two days spent on campus to apply. In the event of a first aid request, whilst you are on call, you will be contacted by the Security Team via radio. You should be able to pause your usual work activities at very short notice to attend the first aid callout.
If you are interested in applying for this role, please first seek approval from your Line Manager. Once approved, or if you would like more information, please contact Jo Rogers (j.rogers@sussex.ac.uk) or Will Horne (w.a.horne@sussex.ac.uk).
