Secure Care and Offender Health - Men’s and Women’s Secure Services and Forensic Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services

ASSISTANT PSYCHOLOGISTS - Band 4

Several vacancies for Assistant Psychologists have arisen within the Secure Care and Offender Health directorate as a result of career progression in our current cohort. Our values centre on providing compassionate, high-quality and person-centred care and we are looking for like-minded individuals to apply.

The roles would suit committed, hard-working and compassionate individuals with an interest in working with people who present with complex needs within the criminal justice system. The directorate has a diverse portfolio of services and has an excellent national reputation, with accreditations from QNIC, NHS England, QNFMHS and the National Autistic Society.

As an assistant psychologist in our services, there is access to regular, highly specialist supervision and CPD as part of a wider psychology team of over 70 staff. We offer continued support and progression within this network, and we work hard to ensure our roles are inclusive and enriching for the post-holders. We are also committed to supporting the wellbeing of our staff team to provide a positive and fulfilling experience of work.

Assistant psychologists support qualified clinical and forensic psychologists in delivering a high-quality psychology service. This involves working in multi-disciplinary teams and engaging directly with men, women, and young people with complex and long-term problems who present with high risk or offending behaviours.

There are opportunities to contribute to specific areas of work including psychometric administration and structured clinical and risk assessments, individual and group treatment interventions including the possibility of family work, and to work closely with a multi-disciplinary team. There are also opportunities for involvement in research, audit and service development projects.

The psychology service delivers a wide range of therapeutic models and types of intervention, with specific therapeutic expertise in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT); Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT); Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT); EMDR; and Mentalisation Based Treatment (MBT).

Welcome to Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust. Our 4000 clinical and support staff help us to improve mental health wellbeing and meet the needs of the 70,000 people we serve each year. We provide a range of mental healthcare services across Birmingham and Solihull, as well as specialised services nationally. We also offer medical, nursing and psychology training and are proud of our international reputation for both research and innovation.

Our population is culturally diverse, characterised in places by high levels of deprivation which create an increasing demand for our services and a necessity for us to make sure everyone can access the help they need. We are a team of compassionate, inclusive and committed people working together to provide excellent care to support our community. If you are looking for a place to belong, where you can make a real difference to peoples lives, join our team where our warm welcome is waiting for you.
