Wiltshire CAMHS SPA is excited to launch this newly created Band 4 - Support Worker full time post; the role will support the well-established clinical and administrative team who are based at Melksham Hospital.

To support the development of the role this will be fixed term contract for one year with a view to permanency upon the anniversary of appointment.

With the national focus on improving services for children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing, there has never been a better time to join Oxford Health CAMHS and make a positive difference to children and young people’s life chances.

The successful applicant can expect a comprehensive induction programme, including a range of shadowing opportunities to fully support the post holder in the role and ongoing in-house training. The team fully supports and delivers regular managerial, peer, clinical, and safeguarding supervision to build upon confidence, competence and commitment to developing self and the role.

We recognise the importance of flexible working to ensure a healthy work life balance and would be open to the possibility of home working for a proportion of the working week once the successful applicant is fully competent and confident in the role.
