Are you passionate about supporting young people and want to lead a mental health and wellbeing provision for 11-25 year olds? Can you develop and deliver service pathways to engage young people?
We currently have an exciting position in the organisation for a Mental Health and Wellbeing Worker to join our committed and outcome focussed team.
About the role

In addition, you will support the engagement of young people and continuously review and improve the programmes to meet their needs.

About You
Your experience and understanding of the delivery of frontline mental health and wellbeing provision in an evidenced and outcomes-focused environment will be vital to ensure that we can provide the support required by young people.

As you would expect, an understanding of safeguarding procedures and referral processes will be essential.
