Bridgend, Bridgend county borough, United Kingdom Swansea Bay University Health Board Full time

Job Overview

We are excited to announce a vacancy for a Clinical Forensic Psychologist within the Wales Offender Personality Disorder Pathway Team (OPDP). This position is a collaborative effort with HM Prison & Probation Service (HMPPS) and is based within the Swansea Bay University Health Board (SBUHB), covering the South Wales region.

The National OPDP Pathway is designed to provide consultation and formulation-led services aimed at assisting individuals with intricate needs and risks during their transition from incarceration to community living. Individuals within the Criminal Justice System often exhibit complex mental health challenges, trauma-related symptoms, and difficulties in managing risk-associated behaviors. Our primary objectives include:

- Enhancing risk management by supporting Probation Practitioners in their interactions with People on Probation.

- Assisting People on Probation in navigating their complex needs and risk-related behaviors.

We seek a dedicated and empathetic professional who is eager to contribute to risk management efforts within this demographic, responding effectively to the needs across South Wales.

Key Responsibilities

As a member of the Offender Personality Disorder Pathway Team (OPDP), you will join a growing, highly specialized, and supportive multidisciplinary team comprising psychologists, probation officers, and transitional liaison nurses.

This role will primarily be based at SBUHB, although the majority of your work will involve agile and autonomous operations across various probation sites in South Wales. This is a part-time, permanent position that will require travel across a broad geographical area.

The OPDP team is committed to staff development and support, offering opportunities for national networking and participation in research initiatives aimed at enhancing service access in Wales.

The successful candidate will be expected to actively engage in ongoing service development alongside fellow professionals and service users. Regular clinical supervision will be provided to ensure continuous professional growth.
