The Lead Clinical Practitioner role is a hybrid position focused on ensuring that clinical services delivered across the range of Care First contracts maintain the highest standards of quality and efficiency within a solid clinical governance framework. This position supports the Clinical Director and the EAP Centre Manager in the effective operation of a large team, ensuring that clinical support is delivered professionally and appropriately to meet customer expectations.

Participate in the recruitment and onboarding of new Telephone Counsellors and Telephone Information Specialists to meet contractual call demand levels. Work with the EAP Centre Manager / Clinical Director to identify ongoing training and development needs for Counsellors and Information Specialists, and develop training programs to address those needs. Provide ad-hoc clinical supervision and guidance to the Telephone Counsellor and Associate Counsellor teams, as well as support for the Information Specialist team as needed. Manage the team's Clinical mailbox, ensuring that all inquiries from customers, clients, Service Managers, and team members are addressed appropriately. Participate in scoping and coordinating the delivery of responses to Critical Incidents, Workplace Mediation, and Professional Support services. Supervise and oversee case management of Associate Counsellors and Specialist Practitioners. Conduct audits of Case Notes and clinical outcome measures to ensure proper completion. Engage in case consultation and management of complex client work, as agreed with the Clinical Director and EAP Centre Manager. Investigate and respond to clinical complaints in collaboration with the EAP Centre Manager / Clinical Director / Service Managers, ensuring that quality standards are upheld.
