This fixed term 24-month post is based in the Birmingham-wide specialist community service for people with learning disabilities. We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly skilled Assistant Psychologist to support and enhance the provision of psychology services within our city-wide multidisciplinary Community Forensic Team (CFT). The CFT provides assessment and intervention for people with learning disabilities with a risk of offending.
This fixed term post will encourage the utilisation of a wide range of psychological skills within CFT, and the wider Learning Disabilities Service. The post holder will be an experienced Assistant Psychologist who ideally has previous experience of working in a forensic and/or learning disability setting and who ideally has access to a car, as the post involves working across the city. There are two Psychologists in CFT. The post holder will be based in the South Community Team Hub in Kings Norton, Birmingham, but CFT is a city-wide service. Therefore, there will be travelling across the city and occasionally outside of Birmingham.
