We would also consider individuals interested in pursuing a new career within a Mental Health environment or Social Work environment.

You’ll ideally hold a full driver’s licence and have accessibility to a fleet of pool cars in order for you to carry out your role.

You’ll be comfortable in challenging negative beliefs and provide positive behaviour support. Having some knowledge and understanding of Mental Health and the issues around it would be beneficial.
