We are looking for passionate, skilled professionals from a Nursing, Social Work (with additional mental health training), or Occupational Therapy background.
We are excited to be recruiting a Community Team Manager to join our Older Persons service at a time of genuine transformation and innovation.
Our service is evolving as part of a wider transformation agenda. This creates a unique opportunity to be part of shaping a modern, responsive mental health service for Older Adults.
