Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust (BWC)
Birmingham Women’s and Children’s NHS Foundation Trust (BWC) are the Lead Provider of the West Midlands CAMHS Provider Collaborative (WMCPC) - bringing together integrated provision of specialist inpatient mental health, learning disability and autism services, for young people aged 13-18.
About the Role
As part of the WMCPC offer, we are driving exciting innovation aligned to the NHSE CYP Developmental Specification. WMCPC’s Innovation is setting out to develop Low Secure and High Intensity Environments to provide care and treatment to some of our most vulnerable CYP in the West Midlands.
High Intensity Environments (HIE)
High Intensity Environments (HIE) outlined in the new Children and Young People's Intensive Mental Health Service developmental service specification will deliver enhanced therapeutic inpatient models, providing care for children and young people with complex trauma and/or mental health needs that cannot be met within a less secure environment than previous models have enabled.
The role will drive to support clinical research, strengthen the basics of research infrastructure and utilise the data intelligently to support the commissioning cycle and to increase the base for children and young people’s mental health recovery. There is a need for us to consider ‘new T4 care models’ and to ensure that our models are evidence based and improving outcomes for our patients.
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.
