Job description

Job responsibilities

WiMT continues to expand significantly across North Yorkshire, York and Selby to meet national requirements of supporting 100% of education settings by 2030. This has created exciting opportunities for senior clinical leadership. This role has been established to provide strategic psychological oversight and specialist CBT leadership across a growing and increasingly complex system of care. The post is designed to ensure that service development, clinical governance, workforce capability and partnership working remain grounded in robust psychological expertise and evidence-based practice.

As Principal Psychologist, you will be responsible for providing visible and accessible psychological leadership across WiMT, ensuring the consistent delivery of high-quality interventions, strong clinical governance arrangements and psychologically informed decision making. Alongside the Service Manager and Advanced Clinical Specialist, you will be a key member of the WiMT Senior Leadership Team and contribute to service planning, operational development, workforce strategy and transformation programmes across the wider children and young people's mental health system.

You will provide expert consultation relating to complex presentations, maintain oversight of therapeutic pathways and support practitioners delivering interventions aligned with NICE guidance and evidence-based psychological models. Emphasis will be placed on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and systemic practice, underpinned by formulation-driven, trauma-informed and neuroaffirmative approaches, with the explicit aim of reducing inequalities in access and outcomes.

A key element of the role will be acting as the CBT Lead for Children and Young People's Mental Health Services across North Yorkshire, York and Selby. You will provide specialist leadership for CBT practice, support service-wide developments in psychological therapies and promote consistency, quality and innovation across services. The successful candidate must hold current BABCP accreditation and possess significant experience of delivering and supervising CBT interventions with children and young people.

You will oversee supervision structures for EMHPs, Senior Wellbeing Practitioners and other psychological therapy staff delivering governed psychological interventions, ensuring practitioners are supported to provide safe, effective and evidence-based care. Workforce development, reflective practice, consultation and the promotion of psychologically informed leadership will form an important part of the role.

You will also play a significant role in strengthening relationships with education settings and partners. This includes supporting senior mental health leads, Multi Academy Trusts, local authorities and specialist services to develop whole-school and college approaches to mental health and emotional wellbeing. The role requires an individual who can work confidently across organisational boundaries and contribute to system-wide approaches that improve outcomes for children, young people and families.

The successful candidate will be an HCPC-registered Practitioner Psychologist with substantial post-qualification experience in child and adolescent mental health services, significant experience working with educational settings and a strong track record of clinical leadership, service development and partnership working. Current BABCP accreditation and a recognised CBT supervision qualification are essential (e.g. PGCert in Clinical supervision for CYP IAPT). If all other essential criteria are met commitment to gain this supervision qualification within the first year of the role may be considered. The ability to travel independently between settings during the working day to undertake the role is essential.

Psychologists & Psychological Therapists provide key leadership roles within the Trust. To support this we have developed leadership profiles for each psychology band and the profile card associated with this post is attached on NHS Jobs. You can find more information about the NHS Leadership Academys Healthcare Leadership Model and the profiles at their website. We encourage you to look at these resources as they will play a part in the interview process.

This role may be eligible for sponsorship under the UK Visas & Immigration (UKVI) Skilled Worker route. However, sponsorship can only be provided where applicants meet the specific requirements, therefore, we recommend that you assess your eligibility before applying for this position.

Job summary

We are looking for a Senior Occupational Therapist to help develop the Daycare team in HMP Norwich. We are a small and friendly multi-professional team consisting of a Lead Therapist and a Psychotherapist who work alongside two Assistant Practitioners and a Senior Mental Health Nurse providing therapeutic input to prisoners at HMP Norwich.

We work with prisoners who self-harm, have suicidal thoughts, or may have attempted suicide. Many of these people experience high levels of anxiety and have a history of trauma or PTSD diagnosis. Many of the people accessing the service have an Assessment Care in Custody and Teamwork (ACCT) document in place to support them. We offer therapeutic approaches in DBT and CBT as well as having an established trauma pathway, which includes emotional regulation work.

Main duties of the job

The team are looking for a Senior Occupational Therapist to support with the development of the Daycare pathways.

As a Senior Occupational Therapist, you will be expected to take on line management responsibilities for the assistants within the team, to lead on the running of therapeutic groups with a range of disciplines, to carry out joint assessments and to assist with writing formulations and discharge reports.

You will also be expected to work 1:1 with prisoners in delivering interventions. You will be invited to attend and contribute to ongoing referral meetings and to engage in regular clinical supervision to access support and continue developing your expertise.

We work closely with the NSFT Mental Health In Reach team, the IAPT/Wellbeing team and the wider and Secure and Forensic services. An important part of this role is to build links with the prison as well as ongoing support services. Some of this work will involve training the prison staff on therapeutic interventions as well as mental health conditions.

The Prison has an established educational service for prisoners, including access to vocational opportunities. However, Daycare staff need to also have an awareness of what community and/or third sector organisations are available to support either by in reaching into the Prison, and/or to support those coming towards the end of their sentences.

About us

Here at NSFT we pride ourselves on being a welcoming, talented, friendly and supportive team who like nothing better than sharing experiences and learning from each other. In addition to ongoing training and development opportunities, we are committed to providing an environment in which you can thrive.

Why work for us? We have ambitious aspirations, pushing ahead with exciting transformation work and we need dedicated individuals to support us on our journey. We have strong, established professional networks coupled with an exceptional leadership team who will ensure you are truly cared for and cared about.

Why Norfolk and Suffolk? The people here are warm and welcoming, you'll never be far from the beautiful coastline or Broads National Park. We're an hour and a half away from London and have an international airport in Norwich too. Our villages, towns and cities are packed full of history, independent cafes, shops and theatres. We have excellent shopping, eating out, top ranking schooling and affordable house prices too.

Job summary

We are seeking a Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist (Band 8a) to join the Norfolk and Suffolk Offender Personality Disorder (OPD) Service for 22.5 hours per week. Applications are also welcomed from experienced Band 7 Psychologists wishing to progress through a supported preceptorship pathway into the full Band 8a role.

This varied post spans two complementary services: the Core OPD Service and IIRMS (see descriptions below). The role combines consultation, training, reflective practice, formulation-led intervention and multi-agency collaboration. You will support professionals and services to develop psychologically informed approaches to risk, relationships and behaviour, while contributing to work with individuals presenting with complex emotional and interpersonal difficulties.

Whilst there is some opportunity for direct face-to-face work within the IIRMS service, much of the role involves influencing outcomes indirectly through consultation, formulation and support to professionals, teams and multi-agency systems.

The NSFT team base is at Northside House, Norwich. Attendance is typically required every other week, including Wednesdays when the team comes together for meetings, reflective practice and service development. The role also requires regular travel to probation, NHS and partner agency sites across Norfolk and Suffolk. Hybrid working can be supported where service needs allow.

Main duties of the job

The post holder will work across two services:

Core OPD Service

The Core OPD Service works across Norfolk and Suffolk to enhance the knowledge, confidence and skills of probation practitioners and partner agencies when working with individuals who present with personality difficulties, complex trauma and significant offending-related risks. The service delivers consultation, training, reflective practice and formulation-informed support to help staff and systems respond effectively to complexity.

Intensive Intervention and Risk Management Service (IIRMS)

The Intensive Intervention and Risk Management Service (IIRMS) is a specialist, formulation-driven service supporting a small caseload of approximately 15 service users at any one time. The service works with individuals presenting with high levels of complexity, need and risk and provides intensive support through a "through the gate" approach, supporting people as they transition from custody into the community for up to two years. The service aims to improve engagement, wellbeing, stability and risk management through psychologically informed interventions and close multi-agency working.

About us

At Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust, inclusion is at the heart of how we work. We are committed to creating a fair, transparent and accessible recruitment process where every candidate has the opportunity to succeed.

We actively encourage applications from people from all backgrounds, particularly those currently underrepresented in our workforce, including those from the global majority. We recognise that not everyone has equal access to opportunities and are working to address this.

We are committed to providing reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process and ensuring all candidates receive a positive and equitable experience.

Here at NSFT we pride ourselves on being a welcoming, talented, friendly and supportive team who like nothing better than sharing experiences and learning from each other. In addition to ongoing training and development opportunities, we are committed to providing an environment in which you can thrive.

Why work for us? We have challenges as a Trust, but we have ambitious aspirations, are pushing ahead with exciting transformation work and we need dedicated individuals to support us on our journey. We have strong, established professional networks coupled with an exceptional leadership team who will ensure you are truly cared for and cared about.

The work varies daily as therapy is provided in the person's own home and allows the OT to really see how people are manging their activities of daily living within different home environments.
