Wiltshire, United Kingdom Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust Full time

Job overview

Do you have excellent leadership and organisational skills? Are you passionate about improving the wellbeing of Children and Young People?

Wiltshire MHST are delighted to be expanding our provision further across Wiltshire and are therefore recruiting for the role of Deputy Team Manager to join our teams in preparation for our expansion in January 2025. 

Wiltshire MHST was commissioned in 2020 to provide low intensity CBT to a selected number of schools within the locality. The team are currently in the process of expanding the service to cover over 40% of schools and over 60% of pupils in Wiltshire. This is an exciting time to join a specialist service which provides timely early intervention to children and young people. 

We are looking for a qualified RMN, OT, Social Worker or High Intensity CBT therapist who will play a key role in the continuing development of the service. You will be confident in recognising, and with support, addressing the service development needs. You will be able to create effective working partnerships with School Staff, Social Care and other key stakeholders. You will work closely with the Clinical Team Manager and Supervisors to help ensure we are a safe and effective clinical team. 

Main duties of the job

You will facilitate good communication and liaison with young people, their families, interfacing with schools/colleges, colleagues within the Trust and across other organisations.

You will be responsible for providing leadership to the team, providing advise on complex cases, liaising with the education settings on clinical cases, unlocking barriers to engagement, building up key relationships, attending national conferences and seminars and reporting information as necessary.

This post will suit someone with a passion for working in early intervention and prevention. This is an exciting venture and collaboration between Health, Education, local authority and voluntary sectors.

You will work with the Team Manager to ensure the successful and effective day-to-day management of the Service so that it provides a responsive, high quality service to patients with common mental health problems.

As Deputy Team Manager, you will have specific lead areas of responsibility whilst also maintaining effective links with mental health leads, children’s services, public health and other stake holders.

You will support the team in identifying, and in conjunction with the Clinical Lead, addressing training and development needs for the service.

The Deputy Team Manager will act as a key person to support the team with advice and signposting in relation to safeguarding and risk management. The role will involve supporting the Team Manager in liaising with stakeholders, managing staff and resources and meeting stringent data collection requirements.
