Summary
Empowering young minds and changing futures. You are someone who cares deeply about making a difference, not just for today but for a young persons 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 will 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. We are also very happy to consider qualified Education Mental Health Practitioners for this role. But it is not just about what you know, it is how you connect. You are 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 are 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 are 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 would love to hear from you.
