Milton Keynes, United Kingdom Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust Full time

CNWL NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to have been awarded the contract for the East of England Gambling Service in partnership with Inclusion (Midlands Partnership NHS Foundation Trust).

We are seeking a Clinical Psychologist to join our dynamic new team. This is a fantastic opportunity to work in a unique branch of mental health at a time of unprecedented expansion and growth. The post holder will have the chance to make a significant difference to residents in the East of England and to be part of the development of the first NHS gambling service in this region.

Previous experience in delivering CBT and working with complex cases in adult mental health and/or addiction and/or learning disabilities and/or forensic setting are essential. Applicants must have completed a relevant supervisor’s training and gained supervision experience. The successful applicant will be responsible for implementing and coordinating a range of psychological interventions, including leading highly specialised psychological assessments, offering consultation and writing reports. They will be a key part of psychological leadership within the team, including involvement in clinical leadership processes, staff supervision and training, and service development. They will liaise closely with colleagues from the clinic and other community services to provide true partnership working and seamless care pathways. The post-holder will work autonomously within professional guidelines and the overall framework of the service’s policies and procedures.

The working environment will be a specialist NHS gambling Service staffed by a multi-disciplinary team working with outpatients. Although working as part of an MDT team, the post holder will be required to deliver specialist evidence-based psychological treatments that address the client’s gambling problems and co-morbid health conditions.

The post-holder will have a working base at Milton Keynes but the role is likely to be largely remote working. There will be an expectation of delivering services in other locations across the East of England region to be agreed once demand is clear.

Our catchment area spans diverse communities, with over 100 first languages spoken. It contains areas of great affluence as well as areas of much deprivation. We are committed to providing services that meet the needs of the people who use them, and we actively encourage involvement from local people who can help make a difference. We’re proud of our diversity and we continue to undertake new initiatives to advance equality for LGBT+, BME and people with disabilities to promote good relations and understanding between our staff.

We are recognised locally, nationally and internationally for providing high quality, innovative healthcare. We aim to employ only the best people, and our experts are frequently called upon to contribute to national health strategy and policy, and many models of our care have been adapted for use in other countries.

**Clinical**:
1. To provide specialist psychological assessments of clients referred to the team based upon the appropriate use, interpretation and integration of complexdata from a variety of sources including psychological and neuropsychological(for clinical psychologists) tests, self-report measures, rating scales, direct and indirect structured observations and semi-structured interviews with clients, family members and others involved in the client’s care.
2. To formulate and implement plans for the formal psychological treatment and/or management of a client’s gambling problem and/or mental health problems, based upon an appropriate conceptual framework of the client’s problems, and employing methods based upon evidence of efficacy, across the full range of care settings.

5. To exercise autonomous professional responsibility for the assessment, treatment and discharge of clients whose problems are managed by psychologically based standard care plans.
6. To provide specialist psychological advice, guidance and consultation to other professionals contributing directly to clients’ formulation, diagnosis and treatment plan.
7. To contribute directly and indirectly to a psychologically based framework of understanding and care to the benefit of all clients of the service, across all settings and agencies serving the client group.
8. To undertake risk assessment and risk management for individual clients
