Richmond, Greater London, United Kingdom Achieving for Children Full time

About the Role

Achieving for Children is a Community Interest Company that has a public sector ethos, combined with the freedom to innovate, enabling us to do things differently. As a not-for-profit social enterprise owned by three local authorities, we offer the freedoms of a social enterprise with the employment benefits of local government.

We are looking for a Full-time Band 6 Creative Therapist/CAMHS Practitioner to join our innovative and friendly Emotional Health Service in our established schools programme team.

This position is part of the CAMHS Trailblazer Mental Health Support Teams (MHST) in Kingston, which has been active since January 2022. The team currently includes four Educational Wellbeing Practitioners (EWPs), a CAMHS Creative Practitioner, a CAMHS Mental Health Clinician, and a part-time Clinical Lead. We are now seeking to expand the team by adding a CAMHS Practitioner.

The role involves conducting assessments and delivering high-quality, low to moderate-level interventions to children and families in both group and 1:1 settings. Additionally, the role includes providing workshops and support for parents, as well as offering consultations, support, and training to school staff.

About You

To be a CAMHS Practitioner at AfC, you must be passionate about making a meaningful impact on the lives of children and young people. You will prioritize their well-being above all else. As a qualified mental health professional, you will have experience working with children facing mental health challenges and be familiar with working in a school setting.

About Our Benefits

We are focused on creating a positive supportive environment, where you will have access to a really wide range of resources, as well as a competitive salary and all the perks to enable hybrid working. In AfC, you will also have access to:

  • 29 days annual leave, increasing to 33 days after 2 years and 35 days after 4 years with an additional day off in your birthday month
  • Tailored induction sessions commencing on the date you start working for AfC
  • Local Government salary and pension scheme (LGPS or Teachers Pension)
  • Flexible working options - helping to keep a good work-life balance
  • A comprehensive Employee Assistance Programme
  • A range of staff benefits and discounts
  • An excellent learning and development offer to support your career pathway

Important Information

Achieving for Children have a set date for successful candidates to join the team. Candidates are advised to prepare for this should a job offer be accepted to ensure eligible continuous service is not affected.

The UK has introduced a new points-based immigration system affecting EU and Non-EU workers and sponsorship requirements. We advise checking the right to work guidance.

We particularly welcome applications from sections of the community who are currently underrepresented within our teams. Achieving for Children are committed to making our recruitment practices as inclusive as possible for everyone. We are committed to promoting equality and diversity and developing a culture that values differences, recognising that employees from a variety of backgrounds bring important and positive contributions and can improve the way we deliver services.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people, and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
