Forensic Psychologist in Training (FPiT) - HMP Lowdham Grange
Competitive salary plus benefits.
Monday to Friday working pattern, 40 hours per week.
Site based but option for some Hybrid working to be discussed at interview stage.
A fantastic opportunity has arisen within HMP Lowdham Grange to join our prisons Psychology team as a  Forensic Psychologist in Training .
The Psychology Department at HMP Lowdham Grange is in the process of exciting and progressive redevelopment. As a Forensic Psychologist you will join us in leading and developing a range of innovative plans including the development of a psychologically led unit and the strengthening of multi-disciplinary working to support our prisoners, presenting significant opportunity for personal growth and continuing professional development. We also recognise the valuable impact of your skills in training and consultancy in developing and supporting our staff through this period of change.
As a Forensic Psychologist you will work closely with the Head of Psychology to develop and promote the psychological services within the Prison and work collaboratively with the Psychology Team and external stakeholders.
You will help to support a team of Forensic Psychologists in Training and will support team members with their caseloads, whilst also maintaining direct contact with prisoners with complex needs including those whose early experiences have contributed to difficulties within their personality functioning and contributed to involvement in serious offending.
We envisage that candidates will have relevant previous experience within prison establishments, although we will consider those whose experience lies within the Forensic Mental Health field. We are able to consider candidates who are newly qualified, who can demonstrate the required insight into the potential demands of the role and solid evidence of the ongoing development of relevant skills.
Sodexo’s vision for HMP Lowdham Grange is to develop a safe, stable, and progressive environment with modern facilities dedicated to reducing re-offending and enabling individuals to fulfil their potential. Every aspect of the prison is designed to help prisoners make meaningful progress in their sentence and personal development goals within a surrounding culture of rehabilitation. Responsible for forensic assessments, formulations and inputting into psychological treatment interventions with prisoners.
Participating in processes where an individual’s risk of harm to self or others is determined and managed i.e. attending Assessment Care in Custody Teamwork (ACCT) meetings for prisoners and providing advice and support to prisoners and staff. 
Delivering training on issues such as managing behaviours, personality disorder and sharing information on complex case formulations with relevant teams to assist prisoner management.
Whilst we encourage all applicants to apply for this role, candidates will be expected to enrol on one of the contracted accredited Qualifications in forensic psychology which will support them to achieve registered forensic psychologist status with the HCPC.
It would be a bonus if you have:
~Experience of achieving Key Performance Targets.
