Description

We have an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and motivated full time Band 4 Employment, Training and Education (ETE) Advisor to join our Occupational and Vocational Team at the North London Forensic Service (NLFS).

The service manages and facilitates the transition of high-risk service users with severe and enduring mental illness through secure inpatient services into the community, working across to the boroughs of Camden, Islington, Barnet, Enfield & Haringey.

The post involves working across the male and female low and medium secure inpatient wards, within the community with service users under the outreach teams, and with our learning disability client group.

The ETE Advisor will be responsible for providing information, advice and guidance to the client group in regards to Education, Training & Employment opportunities within their local area.

The ETE Programme uses a recovery-orientated approach to deliver personalised support tailored specifically to meet the needs and aspirations of each individual.

Service aims are focused on co-production with an emphasis on encouraging social inclusion, improving self-esteem, confidence, self-belief and hope for the future, cultivating the discovery or re-discovery of a sense of personal identity; and developing meaningful structure promoting inclusion in their local communities.

The partnership between Barnet, Enfield and Haringey Mental Health NHS Trust (BEH) and Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust (C&I) is going from strength to strength since it was originally established in 2021 forming the North London Mental Health Partnership.

Why choose to join the Partnership?

We believe that by working together, our two Trusts can achieve more for the residents of North Central London and our patients than we can by working apart.

Deliver the best care using the most up-to-date practise in supporting those with mental health illnesses.

Transforming and creating a positive environment for our service users, staff and visitors.

Creating and working together to become a great place to work for all our staff.

We offer flexible working, a wide range of health and wellbeing initiatives, NHS Pension and so much more.

Generous Annual Leave Allowance

NHS Discounts in a large variety of retail stores and services.

We have excellent internal staff network support groups.

The postholder will need to be comfortable working in an environment of complex matrix management arrangements and will at all times behave and align with our Trusts' values and cultural pillars:
We are kind

We are respectful

We work together

We keep things simple

We empower

We are proudly diverse

In order to meet the needs of the new Partnership services you may be required from time to time to work at different locations to your normal place of work.

The post holder will be based at Chase Farm Hospital and be required to work on the secure wards and travel across the boroughs of Camden, Islington, Barnet, Enfield and Haringey to support those under the outreach teams.

The post requires autonomous working, as well as contributing to the wider multidisciplinary team, attending weekly meetings, face to face contact with service users, supporting individuals in travelling to courses/employment and developing links with external services.

Clear and adaptable communication, both verbal and written, risk assessment skills, and contribution to clinical discussion is a vital part of the job.
