A Vacancy at Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust.
Do you enjoy being part of a team? Are you looking for the opportunity to work creatively with service users? Would you like to join a service that encourages research and innovation? If so, we invite you to apply for this Senior Practitioner Psychologist post in our Intensive Community Rehabilitation Team (ICRT).
The post holder will join the multidisciplinary ICRT in providing flexible, trauma-informed, and holistic support to people with complex psychosis to help them work towards their recovery goals in the community. The ICRT is a partnership between Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust and Birmingham Mind, and the post holder will join a Principal Psychologist and Assistant Psychologist based in the team. They will also be warmly welcomed into a well-established and supportive group of psychological practitioners working across Steps to Recovery rehabilitation services and Assertive Outreach Teams.
Individuals at Band 8a or with suitable experience and eligible for this banding will be considered.
The Intensive Community Rehabilitation Team uses a well coordinated, team-based approach. The post holder will have opportunities to develop skills in specialist assessment, shared formulation, and application of evidence-based psychological interventions to help service users achieve their recovery goals.
Experience of working in multidisciplinary teams and with clients from culturally and socially diverse communities who have a range of mental health needs is desirable, as is the motivation to support positive risk taking so that service users can lead as autonomous and valued a life as possible. We also support multidisciplinary team members to build their knowledge, skills, and confidence by delivering a programme of training, supervision, and reflective practice, to which the post holder would contribute.
Our psychological service has a reputation for clinical excellence and innovation in rehabilitation, and we are actively involved in service development, evaluation, and research. We have access to a comprehensive CPD programme and external training, including leadership development, and provide strong professional supervision, offering a range of clinical models and accreditation opportunities.
If you share our recovery-focused commitment to keep service users at the heart of what we do and would like to develop your clinical and leadership skills, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us for further information about the post or to arrange an informal visit
