Our friendly and supportive team is looking for staff to join us who are passionate about helping young adults on their way to recovery.
There are ample opportunities to be involved in service development and shaping our service for the future; as well as in community outreach work with a focus on eating disorder awareness-raising, prevention, and early intervention.

The post-holder will bring specialist CBT skills to the team. The role will involve delivering individual evidence-based therapies as well as contributing to the development and delivery of our groups programme. There will also be the opportunity to supervise junior staff members.
