We are looking to recruit enthusiastic and proactive professionally registered (Occupational Therapist, Social Worker, Nurse) into a Band 6 Recovery Co-ordinator role as part of our wider Multidisciplinary Team.

The ARMS team are focused on working to improve people's quality of life and aim to prevent the development of a psychotic illness in the future.
