Are you an experienced and ambitious Senior Forensic Psychologist seeking a new challenge and a change in career direction? Do you want to work for a progressive and people-focused organisation committed to your development? We want to hear from you. We are looking for Senior Forensic Psychologists to join our friendly, tight-knit Psychological Services team at Serco.
By joining Serco as a Senior Forensic Psychologist, you will play a key role in delivering Psychological Services within our prisons.
You will be responsible for the line management of Forensic Psychologists and Forensic Psychologists-in-Training, as well as direct psychological contact with prisoners—many of whom have a range of complex needs, including mental illness, personality disorders, cognitive deficits, self-harming behaviours, and significant offending histories.
Not only will you ensure that all our work adheres to our code of conduct and BPS guidelines, you'll also:
- Undertake forensic risk assessments of prisoners that contribute to the safer custody of residents
- Act as a "professional witness" in parole board hearings, multi-agency meetings, and other formal settings
- Lead and contribute to the development and delivery of new offending behaviour programmes
- Deliver training on issues such as personality disorder, psychopathy, or managing difficult behaviour
This role offers variety and contributes enormously to the important work of reintegrating offenders back into society.
What you'll need to do the role
First and foremost, you will have Chartered status with the British Psychological Society and be registered as a Forensic Psychologist with the Health and Care Professions Council, on the Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors (RAAPS) with the BPS.
You will possess good awareness and knowledge of the Offender Personality Disorder pathway and the experience and ability to make good clinical formulations of offenders with complex needs. You will be comfortable completing parole reports and carrying out assessments such as WAIS IV, HCR-20, PCL-R, IPDE, and SARA. You'll also be able to work in a multi-disciplinary way and bring a collaborative approach to your work with your team and with the offenders.
You should be highly skilled at report writing and presenting evidence in formal settings such as Oral Hearings, with significant post-qualification experience working in secure settings.
While performing as an active stakeholder in the Rehabilitative Culture strategy of the prison, you will keep yourself up to speed with knowledge in research in the area of Forensic Psychology, particularly that relating to the rehabilitation of offenders.
Why Serco
A place you can make an impact- Using specialist behavioural analysis, you'll contribute to the reintegration of ex-offenders back into society, helping them to address the factors that influence offending behaviour.
A place you can count on- With six prisons across the UK and a breadth of roles, you'll be wholeheartedly supported with development and career progression. We actively fund psychologists towards chartered and/or registered status and with ongoing CPD activities, and look to promote from within.
A place for you- You'll become an integral member of a well-defined and supportive team, who believe passionately in the value of our work. We promote an empathic and therapeutic approach, respecting individual differences and promoting self-efficacy.
What we offer
- Up to 6% contributory pension scheme
- A range of benefits to support the health and wellbeing of you and your family, such as Employee Assistance Programme and more
- Access to a huge range of discounts and exclusive deals such as Merlin Attractions, Mobile Phone discounts, Cinema discounts, Leisure, and Hospitality discounts
