Do you have a passion for supporting the CAMHS/psychological workforce to deliver best-practice care to children and young people with mental health difficulties?

Do you thrive in multi-disciplinary settings where psychological skills and expertise are highly valued?

Working in a very friendly and dynamic CAMHS Service, we have an exciting part-time opportunity for an experienced Clinical Psychologist based mainly in our Core CAMHS Chesterfield bases with some linking to our Buxton Core CAMHS Team also.

This exciting post includes direct clinical work with young people with more complex needs in Core CAMHS. The post will also include indirect lead roles with supporting and co-ordinating clinical supervision processes, and co-ordinating and delivery of the Psychology Consultation Offer across the Service.

Our Service has 10 teams with excellent track records working closely together, with lots of opportunities for gaining different experiences to develop your portfolio. Our internal training programme for staff is positively-rated and clinical supervision practice is highly valued. We value the diversity of our clinicians, and the different skill sets that they bring. We offer flexible working and have a special leave policy.

We have well established links with the training courses and regularly have trainees on placement.

As an experienced Clinical Psychologist in Core CAMHS you will:

· Provide specialist psychological/therapy-based assessments, formulations and interventions for children and young people with the most complex need in Core CAMHS and take a lead role in the provision of services to this client group

· Provide a significant leadership role along with the Team Leads for Core CAMHS.

· Provide specialist knowledge, expert advice and support the delivery of evidence-based therapeutic interventions.

· Manage and help the development of other Clinical Psychologists, Trainee Clinical Psychologists and Assistant Psychologists.

· Offer training and clinical supervision to CAMHS Professionals

·Carry out complex neuropsychological and neurodevelopmental assessments as appropriate, particularly where there is co-morbidity and/or complexity to the presentation

· Be a member of a multi-disciplinary service and contribute to team and service developments.

Across the service you will:

· Lead and co-ordinate and deliver the Psychology Consultation Offer to CAMHS professionals.

· Lead and co-ordinate the Clinical Supervision processes

We are firmly rooted in the founding principles of the NHS, and we have built on this by “Leading the Chesterfield Way”, and with our Proud to CARE values. This means leading with care, openness, integrity and embedding an inclusive culture. We know that people have a life and responsibilities outside of work and we offer flexibility and a whole raft of support to care for your physical and mental wellbeing. This role is hugely important to us and we look forward to hearing from you.


Our main hospital base is on a greenfield site with abundant countryside, lovely views, beautiful landscaping and outdoor gym- it's easy to access green space at break times which offers an opportunity to de-stress. We also have a newer base located near the local train station. Both sites are in the historic market town of Chesterfield, and on the doorstep of Sheffield, a vibrant, multi-cultural/cosmopolitan city; and are easily accessible from the M1 and the A61.

Please see the Job Description and Person Specification in the attachments. This document contains a full detailed description of the role and what the main responsibilities and duties are along with the criteria that are required.
