Main Responsibilities

The successful candidate will work autonomously and responsibly within their scope of practice, alongside education colleagues. They will be experienced in delivering interventions to support children and young people in primary, secondary, and higher education settings.

The practitioner will complete robust assessments, risk assessments, care plans, and reviews. They will be proficient in using Routine Outcome Measures (ROMS) and clinical tools to gather feedback and guide clinical practice, with opportunities for service provision planning and mapping with schools to inform the delivery of support to children and young people.

Working with NELFT

All new starters will join the Trust on the first Monday of each month and will undertake a comprehensive induction of up to two weeks, which will include mandatory training, systems training, and the allocation of equipment.

Base

This post requires the successful applicant to work agilely between NELFT sites and educational settings. For applicants to have the ability to work independently is an important factor. Some travel around the county is also expected. The nominated base for South East Essex is The Skyline Plaza in Southend.
