Birmingham, United Kingdom Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

This is an exciting opportunity to join the Perinatal Teams in Birmingham in our Inpatient Mother and Baby Unit. Birmingham and Solihull Perinatal Mental Health Services are currently expanding with a focus on developing innovative forms of service delivery in the community.

The Service operates Monday-Friday; 9.00am-5.00pm. This is a full time post working 37.5 hours per week. The Mother and Baby Unit include a Consultant Psychiatrist, Team Manager, Mental Health Nurses, Clinical Psychologists, Occupational Therapists, Nursery Nurses and Peer Support Workers. The ability to work flexibly and positively in multidisciplinary teams is therefore essential.

We are looking for a highly motivated Assistant Psychologist with a genuine interest in perinatal mental health. The role includes providing support in both clinical interventions and data collection and analysis for service evaluation. You will be part of the multidisciplinary team and will be supervised by a Clinical Psychologist. Applicants will need to have experience of a mental health setting, good communication skills and an ability to understand and analyse data. The ability to speak languages of local communities (e.g Urdu, Punjabi) is not essential but would be an advantage.

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 people’s lives, join our team where our warm welcome is waiting for you.
