Summary

Empowering young minds and changing futures. You`re someone who cares deeply about making a differencenot just for today, but for a young person`s entire future. You bring a blend of clinical expertise, compassion, and creativity, ready to meet children and young people where they are and help them move forward with confidence. You`ll need to be a qualified Mental Health Practitioner, confident in using therapeutic interventions like CBT or solution-focused techniques, and experienced in working with children, young people and families, especially those facing emotional or behavioural challenges. But it`s not just about what you know, it`s how you connect. You`re a natural collaborator, able to build trusted relationships with schools, families and multi-agency partners, and you understand the power of early support in educational settings. Safeguarding, risk management and communication come naturally to you, not as tick boxes, but as vital tools for building trust and safety. You`re reflective, adaptable and committed to learning, with the drive to grow professionally and the values to guide others through difficult moments with hope and respect. If you`re excited by the chance to work in an amazing supportive, forward-thinking team and to use your skills to help children and young people thrive - we`d love to hear from you.
