You will liaise with youth justice professionals advising and consulting on specific cases referred in to the ECM.

This role will be pivotal in the development of a training package to be rolled out for all professionals within the youth justice setting and further developments e.g., smaller reflective groups, alongside the Psychologists in the team.


The role may also include the provision of advice and consultation to CAMHS services for children who present with a high level of complexity and significant risk to others.
