The aim of the service is to work with criminal justice agencies to help manage high risk personality disorders offenders in the community. This is done through a consultation/liaison model as this allows for involvement in a wider range of cases. A small number of cases are taken on for thorough assessment involving personality and risk assessments. The successful applicant will therefore be involved in a significant amount of consultation, training and supervision but will also require expertise in the assessment of offenders who pose a serious risk of harm. In this

positive multidisciplinary and multi-agency environment, the successful applicant will be able to work collaboratively with other professionals and other agencies. The service has close links with all the agencies involved in MAPPA locally and the service is integral to NHS Lothian fulfilling its responsibilities under MAPPA.

The post is part of the wider forensic clinical psychology service within the Orchard Clinic medium secure unit. There will be close links with the East of Scotland Clinical Psychology training course and Edinburgh University, together with opportunities for service orientated research.

Continuing professional development will be encouraged.
