Many of our clients experience difficulties with housing, finances, vocational activities and social inclusion, healthy lifestyles and the successful applicant will be expected to work creatively, both with other team members and independently to support the client achieve their goals.

This means we have a number of exciting new jobs and vacancies. Come and join our expanding team at this time of growth and investment in our staff and our services. You'll have an opportunity to contribute to the transformation as you and your career develop with us.

Importantly, we are pioneering co-design and co-production of our services with those who have lived experience of mental health care (Experts by Experience). The service will be fully integrated with local services, including Primary Care Networks, employment and housing services, VCSE local organisations and Social Support services.
