The Mendip post is a full time permanent post.

We are recruiting Assistant Psychologists at band 5 to reflect the applicants' skills in undertaking planned brief interventions drawing on evidence base models of care, as well as having experience of working with risk and complexity.

We are looking for applicants who are resilient, reflective and motivated to work psychologically with these client groups and with an interest in developing the service further.
