In this role, you’ll play a central part in supporting young people through some of the most challenging moments of their lives — using your therapeutic skills, trauma-informed practice and clinical judgement to help them stabilise, build confidence and engage in their recovery. You’ll work closely with young people who may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, complex emotional needs or difficulties with self-esteem, providing the safe, consistent support they need to move forward. You’ll also contribute to a strong multidisciplinary team, influencing positive change, shaping care plans, and helping create a therapeutic environment where every young person feels understood, encouraged and empowered. Enjoy a flexible working pattern that puts you first, with options for 9–5 hours, the ability to condense your week into fewer days, and a supportive on-call rota shared fairly across the team.
