Awful bully Colleague

I’m not sure if anyone can offer me any advice, this colleague is not my manager but is a ‘supervisor’ to anyone who has knowledge of the nhs she’s a band 6 and I’m a 5. Just a bit of background I’ve worked there for 7 years, get on well with all my other colleagues, often get lots of positive feedback and I am known to help everyone out, she started about a year a go. It feels like she goes out of her way to constantly berate me and anything I do. I have briefly spoken to some other staff who say she wouldn’t mean to be horrible and say things like ‘she says it as it is’ ‘big personality’ I think she’s rude and a bully. I cannot confront her she is so volatile I would just end up crying and she would have won, she often puts me down in front of other staff, I’ve ignored it as best I can and just thought you can’t be liked by everyone just let it go however I had my student with me on my last shift and she berated me about an issue that wasn’t anything to do with me I just happened to be there and she said to me ‘why is so always so disrespectful to you’ and it made me realise the issue is not me. I am at breaking point, I have cried after my shifts because I don’t know how to deal with her, I’ve applied for other jobs, I have tried to swap any shifts where she is also working but I still have some.

I really feel for you Round. Was it the student who asked why your supervisor berates you in front of everyone? You should speak to your line manager. Has she been there for years and thinks she rules the place?

Speak to your manager. I am a Band 3 admin and my manager berated me in front of my colleagues on a Zoom call.
