Beckenham, Greater London, United Kingdom South East London Mind Full time
  • £32,137 per year
  • Full-time – 37.5 hours per week
  • Permanent contract
  • Based at the Bethlem Royal Hospital, West Wickham, with regular travel across South East London
  • Hybrid working – up to 3 days per week from home, with an expectation to visit clients in the community as required

    The South East London Suicide Bereavement Service is a collaboration between South East London Mind, South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, and Mind in Bexley. The service provides vital emotional and practical support to adults and young people who have lost a loved one to suicide. You will be joining a supportive team who share a passion for working with people during some of the most difficult experiences of their lives.

    We are looking for a compassionate, reflective and resilient individual to fill the key role of Suicide Bereavement Support Worker. Your primary responsibilities will be to deliver one-to-one emotional and practical support and co-facilitate occasional bereavement support groups. This role involves building relationships with people from all walks of life and managing your own caseload. You will have ownership over your work, while being supported through regular supervision and reflective practice.

    With experience providing emotional support, including to those who have experienced bereavement, you will be an excellent communicator with good assessment and support planning skills. You will also be highly organised and able to manage a busy and varied workload. The ability to adapt your approach to a wide variety of people, ensuring that support is inclusive and sensitive to service users' cultural and religious backgrounds, is essential. This role involves meeting clients in the community, including carrying out home visits. Although it is possible to fulfil the travel requirements of the role by public transport, this would best suit someone with access to their own mode of transport, such as a car or bicycle.

    We encourage applications from people with lived experience of bereavement by suicide, although this is not a requirement for the role.

    Successful applicants will be expected to undergo an Enhanced Level Disclosure and Barring Service check.

    Closing date: Sunday 7th July (11:59pm)

    Likely interview date: Week beginning 15th July
