Job summary

Clinical/Counselling Psychologist (Band 8a) or Preceptorship (Band 7)

Permanent Post 0.9 (33.75 hours) opportunities for flexible working.

We are seeking to recruit a skilled, innovative and compassionate Clinical or Counselling Psychologist to work across the acute in-patient and community mental health services in the London borough of Greenwich.

Psychology's contribution in these settings is well established, and the link that this post provides for older people who are transferring between the in-patient and community setting has been shown to be effective and highly valued.

This role involves 2.5 day based in the Older People CMHT at Memorial Hospital, Greenwich, and 2 days on Shepherdleas, the Older People acute ward at Oxleas House, Queen Elizabeth Hospital. This post would suit someone who has a genuine interest in working therapeutically with this varied and rewarding client group.

The post holder will join well established multi-professional teams and benefit from close working relationships with other on-site psychological therapists. This is an exciting opportunity to improve the service user's experience of the interface between hospital and community services and to provide innovation and leadership in the development of the transitional pathway for older people.

Main duties of the job

The CMHT part of the post will include providing a specialist clinical service to clients and families, supervising both qualified and trainee psychologists, as required. You will join a dynamic and integrative team, in which different models of therapy are used creatively and according to our service users' needs.

The ward provides an assessment and intervention service to older people with a range of mental health needs including dementia. This offers stimulating and fulfilling opportunities of working in a multi-modal trans-diagnostic approach with people with a wide variety of presentations and their families and carers.

On the ward, you will have a pivotal role in supporting the wider inpatient team to think more psychologically and reflect on the wider organisation of care. There is a strong focus on indirect work through team formulation, reflective practice and staff training.

We will support you to learn the skills you need to thrive in this role. Specialist clinical supervision will be provided. The post sits alongside other highly skilled and motivated psychological therapies staff who meet regularly to provide peer support, and develop/review the psychological service across the Acute and Crisis Pathway.

About us

Our services include community health care such as district nursing and speech and language therapy, care for people with learning disabilities and mental health care such as psychiatry, nursing and therapies. Our multidisciplinary teams look after people of all ages and we work in close partnership with other parts of the NHS, local councils and the voluntary sector and through our new provider collaboratives. Our 4,300 members of staff work in many different settings including hospitals, clinics, prisons, secure hospitals, children's centres, schools and people's homes.

We have over 125 sites in a variety of locations in the South of England. In London we operate within the Boroughs of Bexley, Bromley Greenwich and into Kent. We manage hospital sites including Queen Mary's Hospital, Sidcup and Memorial Hospital, Woolwich, as well as the Bracton Centre, our medium secure unit for people with mental health needs.

Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check

As part of our commitment to safeguarding patients and staff, many roles at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT) require a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This is a standard process across the NHS and helps us ensure a safe environment for everyone.

What is a DBS Check?

A DBS check is a background check that reveals any criminal convictions, cautions, reprimands, or warnings. The level of check required depends on the role:

Standard DBS: Checks for spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands, and final warnings.

Enhanced DBS: Includes the above, plus any additional information held by local police thats considered relevant to the role.

Enhanced with Barred Lists: Includes all of the above, plus checks against the childrens and/or adults barred lists.

Who Needs a DBS Check

Most roles involving direct patient contact, working with children or vulnerable adults, or access to sensitive information will require a DBS check. The job advert and recruitment team will let you know if this applies to your role.

The Costs for a DBS

At Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust (MFT), roles that require a DBS check are subject to a cost recovery policy. This means that the cost of submitting and processing a DBS application if you are successful and join us, will be deducted from your salary within the first three months of employment. If, however, you withdraw from a conditional offer after the DBS process has begun, you will still be liable for the cost incurred.
