You will provide specialist mental health advice for cases where in-depth or full psychiatric reports are required such as post report recommendations and referrals to primary, secondary or tertiary services.

You will have autonomous responsibility for conducting assessments and reports in a timely manner, contributing to risk management and liaison with other stakeholders thus enabling access to the appropriate level of care and intervention. You will also have the opportunity to provide additional data about the service provided to the courts, contributing to service development and delivery.

The nature of our work attracts kindness and compassion as standard and everyone from our cleaners and porters to the chief executive and chairman are recognised as playing a vital role in providing an exemplary service.

The post holder will work as a Specialist Liaison & Diversion Practitioner, responding to referrals from within the criminal justice system, providing an all age screening and assessment service for those with identified health or social vulnerabilities coming through the court process.

We are looking for forward thinking and enthusiastic individuals, with a keen eye for holistic assessment, risk assessment, formulation and innovative decision making.
