Summary

7/8A Practitioner Psychologists, with Preceptorship(Permanent)
1x 8A Practitioner Psychologist in CAMEO, Specialist Offender Personality Disorder Service(Fixed Term Contract for Maternity Cover; also open to Band 7).
We are recruiting to a number of Practitioner Psychologist posts within our Secure Care and Offender Health (SCOH) Directorate within Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust (BSMHFT). The posts advertised are often split across services within the directorate, allowing individuals to develop a broad set of skills and gain valuable clinical experience. We are open to working with successful candidates to offer full-time posts in particular services if service need allows. We welcome applications from people who are seeking part-time opportunities also. We currently have vacancies across the services listed below:
· CAMEO, Specialist Offender Personality Disorder Service, based in HMP Foston Hall (Derby)
·Reaside Clinic/Hillis Lodge. Reaside Clinic is a male medium secure inpatient unit and Hillis Lodge is a male low secure inpatient unit, both which are based in Rubery, Birmingham.
·AFFIRM, Offender Personality Disorder Pathway services, based across various probation and prison sites in the West Midlands and Warwickshire.
·FIRST, forensic community mental health team for adults, which has two main sites: one in Rubery, Birmingham and one within St Andrews Hospital, Stirchley, Birmingham.
You will have access to model-specific supervision in addition to individual and management supervision and group reflective spaces. Model specific supervision includes CBT (including ACT), CAT, DBT, EMDR, and CFT. This offers individuals the opportunity to hone their therapeutic skills and develop practice relating to service need. As a forensic service, we balance interventions for mental health with offending needs, incorporating structured clinical judgement tools as routine practice within our work. If you are new to forensic practice, we will help to support your knowledge and skills development, so you feel confident in your work.
We value the breadth of skills that Practitioner Psychologists bring, therefore alongside your therapeutic work, you will be supported to develop service provision using quality improvement and research methodology. We have specific workstreams that focus on shaping the broader system and culture via practice-based changes in areas such as family and carers, challenging health inequalities, and building better trauma informed service provision.
The people we work with have often experienced significant difficulties throughout their lives and have varying relationships with mental health services due to a complex interplay of factors. We work collaboratively alongside a large multidisciplinary team and other partner organisations, to ensure that these factors are held in mind.
Welcome to Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust. Our 4000 clinical and support staff help us to improve mental health wellbeing and meet the needs of the 70,000 people we serve each year. We provide a range of mental healthcare services across Birmingham and Solihull, as well as specialised services nationally. We also offer medical, nursing and psychology training and are proud of our international reputation for both research and innovation.
Our population is culturally diverse, characterised in places by high levels of deprivation which create an increasing demand for our services and a necessity for us to make sure everyone can access the help they need. We are a team of compassionate, inclusive and committed people working together to provide excellent care to support our community. If you are looking for a place to belong, where you can make a real difference to people's lives, join our team where our warm welcome is waiting for you.
