You will assess needs, provide extended brief interventions, psychological interventions, and work as part of a wider multidisciplinary team (involving mental health practitioners, clinical psychologists and psychotherapists, social prescribers, peer support workers, occupational therapy, and pharmacy)

We are passionate about providing the very best care to the people we support, and we're looking for amazing people who share this passion to join us.

We offer flexible working conditions. We genuinely care about our staff; we invest in you. We protect time for peer and clinical supervision. We invest in fostering cohesion and a team mentality. We are a sociable bunch of supportive, skilled clinicians that genuinely want to develop mental health care across the city, using our autonomy, initiative, and innovative ways of working to help forge mental health care for the future.

It is important to us that you feel supported in your role, that the people who you work with are as passionate as you are and that your health and wellbeing is taken care of.

Sheffield is leading the way nationally in providing mental health support in primary care for adults with serious mental illness and complex needs.

There has never been a more exciting time to work within mental health services in primary care, if you are looking for the opportunity to work as part of the wider primary care team to improve access to mental health services and to address biopsychosocial needs, we want to hear from you
