    Description

    The Clinical Support Unit for CAMHS within Manchester Foundation Trust was awarded an Outstanding rating by the Care Quality Commission both in 2016 and 2019.

    This is an exciting time to join the trust to be part of the Greater Manchester footprint committed to dynamic and responsive engagement with our community.

    This is a brilliant opportunity for a Band 6 who is interested in developing their skills at a Band 7 senior level or a newly qualified clinical psychologist to join our dedicated Duty & Assessment team and promote and improve the mental health and well-being of Children, Young People and those who care for them.

    North Manchester Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) work with Children, Young People and Families aged up to 18 years and who present with a wide range of complex emotional and behavioural difficulties.

    The team are supported by a vastly experienced multi-disciplinary team including psychiatrists, psychologists, nursing and AHPs in a warm friendly environment where staff wellbeing is as equally valued as the high standard of patient care that we deliver.


    We have 3 posts available, one of which is fixed term for 12 months to cover a secondment within the service.

    You must have a working knowledge of CAMHS and/or adult mental health and have an understanding of assessing complex mental health needs and levels of risk, including safeguarding and self-harm.


    You will manage your own caseload, providing a range of high quality care appropriate to the child or young person's needs which will include mental state assessment, risk assessment and management, family and social assessment, consultation and interventions.

    You will receive support from the Pathway Lead, Service Manager, Consultant Clinical Psychologist and Consultant CAMHS Psychiatrists.


    The majority of your working time is to be targeted towards initial assessments of mental health disorders and duty based mental health risk assessments.

    This could be, for example to move them through to longer term treatment.

    MFT is one of the largest NHS Trust In England with a turnover of 2.6bn & is on a different scale than most other NHS Trusts.

    We're creating an exceptional integrated health & social care system for the 1 million patients who rely on our services every year.


    Bringing together 10 hospitals & community services from across Manchester, Trafford & beyond, we champion collaborative working & transformation, encouraging our 28,000 workforce to pursue their most ambitious goals.

    We've also created a digitally enabled organisation to improve clinical quality, patient & staff experience, operational effectiveness & driving research, and innovation through the introduction of Hive our Electronic Patient Record system which launched in September 2022.


    We're proud to be a major academic Research Centre & Education provider, providing you with a robust infrastructure to encourage and facilitate high-quality research programmes.

    What's more, we're excited to be embarking on our Green Plan which sets out how MFT continues to play its part in making healthcare more sustainable.


    At MFT, we create and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging, provide equal opportunities for career development that are fair, open, and transparent, protecting your health and wellbeing and shaping the future of our organisation together.
