To facilitate appropriate signposting to/referring on, or interventions in close collaboration and liaison with other relevant agencies. Developing a good working knowledge and understanding of local services and pathways will be important in this role. Knowledge of clinical pathways will enable the applicant in the ambition of facilitating a persons diversion away from the criminal justice pathway at the earliest possible opportunity. (The term diversion being used in its widest possible sense and includes urgent and non-urgent pathways). Demonstrate effective communication with colleagues, partners and stakeholders and with people in vulnerable groups. The candidates approach will be inclusive, collaborative and helpful. Communication types include verbal, written and digital methods of communication. Competent digital skills will be needed for this role. To actively promote relationships with colleagues that support open communication and collaborative working, taking personal responsibility for one's contribution to this process at all times. To maintain a high standard of written communication that is mindful of the readership and takes into account the legal context. Written work will also involve recording appropriate events and observations to evidence interventions. Proactively seek service user feedback about their experiences of liaison and diversion to inform and shape our service. Please see the combined job description and person specification for more details of the role. IMPORTANT this position is offered subject to a successful Police Vetting that will enable successful candidates to work in police custody locations. As such, you will be subjected to a significantly higher level of vetting than is standard. This vetting is conducted by the Metropolitan Police. It is essentially a detailed background check of you and close family members. Any criminal conviction is highly likely to result in a fail another of the most essential criteria is that you are required to have resided in the UK for at least 3 years. If vetting is unsuccessful, you will not be able to work in custody and therefore any job offer may be withdrawn. Unfortunately the police vetting requirement is a lengthy process that could extend beyond the existing pre-employment checks that are conducted by Recruitment Services. If you are successful at interview and we wish to take forward your application, please be assured we are really keen to have you with us and we ask you for your patience with any undue delay that is outside our control.
