A recent significant investment in psychology provision and a commitment to clinical quality and excellence, has led to the creation of new psychology posts, including a new leadership structure across the county.

To support the clinical leadership of these roles, we are also looking for one Band 8b Clinical Lead post.

The successful candidates will work within a multi-disciplinary crisis team, as a key clinical member of the multi-disciplinary team. As a psychologist you will apply skills and expertise in clinical and risk assessments, collaboratively develop formulations and care plans, facilitate group and individual psychological interventions, and provide case consultations and reflective sessions for staff as well as teaching, training and supervision.

Your clinical expertise, training and experience will be valued, together with a commitment to supporting your career development and progression, with ongoing learning opportunities. Due to our commitment to your professional growth, we are developing a career progression model in which our 8a psychology staff rotate between differing inpatient environments every two years. Following a full rotation, further career pathways and opportunities, such as the Mental Health Act Approved / Responsible Clinician training pathway become available. This provides a framework through which we can meaningfully reward our talented psychology team, should they want to progress within the profession whilst maintaining a clinical leadership role. As a department we are also keen to support clinical associate psychologists, assistant psychologists, trainee psychologists and psychology interns.

The Trust has a clear management and supervision structure that is led by a Head of Psychological Professions, who is also part of the Trust’s Senior Management Team. Inpatient services are supported by a lead Consultant Psychologist as well as a Consultant Psychologist working as an Approved/Responsible Clinician. Clinical Psychologists are currently employed in the Low Secure Unit (Bowman) and the Rehabilitation Unit (Fettle).

There will be additional investment in psychology services in the next few years via the Transformation of Community Mental Health services, which will bring further opportunities for career development within the Trust.
