Supervising School Counsellor
Waverley Court
Salary: £39,129 - £46,023
Hours: 36 per week, 52 weeks
We are looking to appoint a skilled individual to the post of Supervising School Counsellor in Edinburgh Schools. This is part of our exciting citywide initiative to provide counselling through all our schools. The post holder will be providing supervision to our school counsellors. The post holder will be based within Drummond and will also have a role offering counselling to pupils aged 10 years or over in the associated primary schools.
The successful candidate will work with supervisees at different levels of experience and competence as well as with the secondary school and its associated primary schools to oversee the effective delivery of counselling services to 10 to 18 year olds within the school learning community. The supervising counsellor will be line managed by the school but will also regularly link with the team leader to ensure appropriate levels of support and supervision are delivered and to work within the citywide strategy for counsellors in schools.
Supervising School Counsellors are part of the wider pupil support team and will support the child planning process within the national GIRFEC framework. They are integrated into the whole school approach to emotional health and wellbeing and work in partnership with the wider school team and other key partners.
Supervising School Counsellors work with the schools, the supervisees and the team leader to agree and provide appropriate levels of counselling and supervision contact during school holidays.
Successful candidates will be fully qualified counsellors and supervisors and registered with an appropriate organisation such as COSCA or the BACP.
This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.
We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
As part of our goal to improve our organisational culture and create a great place to work together for the people of Edinburgh, we want to make sure that we're bringing the best people into our roles, not just in their skills and experience but also in their approach to work.
To help achieve this, we're changing the way we interview and assess candidates by moving from a competency-based interview approach to a behavioural and technical (skills for the job) based approach. This new way of interviewing will allow us to assess how you think and how you would bring Our Behaviours of Respect, Integrity and Flexibility into your ways of working.

Our salary range typically reflects the initial starting salary and annually increases until it reaches the top of the range.
Happy to talk flexible working.
