Beyond the operational level, you will oversee the use of outcome measures for psychosocial interventions and  lead on  the management of databases, audit and evaluation related to psychosocial and psychological provision. You will explore ways to continuously improve our services by participating in national psychosocial service development in response to needs analysis, supporting the development and governance of psychosocial  and psychological interventions and training and coaching in psychosocial and psychological approaches for local Turning Point staff and external partner agencies.

Along with current registration through the Health and Social Professions Council (HCPC) as a Clinical, Counselling or Forensic Psychologist, you will need a doctorate in your professional specialism and proven ability to deliver psychological services. You will have experience of providing, practice managerial or clinical supervision and of offering psychological therapies to people with mental health and/or substance use difficulties. Excellent communication skills, knowledge of IT systems, passion, energy and enthusiasm to be an advocate for change and support staff teams through change, to be person centred in your approach to colleagues and people we support and to add to the delivery of positive outcomes, will all contribute to you becoming a vital member of our clinical team.
