Highly Specialist Clinical Psychologist
An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Clinical or Counselling Psychologist with experience of working with young people and their families to work in our well-regarded service as part of our Cross Borough CAMHS teams. The role is split between the Crisis Outreach Resource for Autism Team (CORA) for 0.6 WTE and CAMHS Alliance Team for 0.4 WTE.
CORA works closely with other services and teams to improve the experience of Autistic young people in crisis. The work is varied and includes direct work with young people, family and carers, liaison with Tier 4 and specialist services, consultation and training with community teams and services, and service innovation and design.
The Alliance Team provides crisis assessments and follow-ups to children and young people presenting at local A&E, as well as brief interventions and outreach work to children and young people presenting with acute psychological and mental health problems where intensive support is required to prevent admission to hospital.
This role combines clinical work, consultation and training, alongside opportunities to support team development. At this time, we are particularly looking for a candidate to lead on the community-based offer in the CORA team. The postholder will also have opportunities to provide supervision and support to trainees and junior staff.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
