    You will be experienced in working with adults with a wide range of additional support needs, with exceptional communication skills and be able to effectively manage your own case load.

    Although this is not a mental health specific service, you will understand the varying needs of people with mental health problems and be experienced in providing support that empowers people to progress in their recovery journey, at times of poor mental health, at times of crisis and distress. You'll also need to be flexible in responding to the demands of the service and ensure at all times that your practice and work is of the highest quality.

    Successful candidates must be able to work a Wednesday afternoon for team meetings and training.
