Our Children, Family & Young People Services across Suffolk are seeking dedicated Senior Registered Mental Health Nurse, Social Worker or Occupational Therapist to join their existing team. This postholder will join an experienced multi-disciplinary team working with young people aged 18-25 years of age.
We have opportunities throughout our services, and want to hear from passionate individuals who share our values.
We are confident that being part of CFYP Suffolk would enable you to be the Registered Mental Health Practitioner you trained, and would like, to be. Joining our team will offer you the time and facilities to make a difference.
Ideally you’ll have experience and skills in working with young adults and their families. Our dedicated team is compassionate and responsive. There are processes to review our work, to develop areas of good practice, therapeutic skills and support learning and development of staff.
Mental Health has never been more in the public eye and now more than ever our profession needs to adapt and change to meet the changing needs of our patients and the evolving health and social care integrated systems.
As a secondary mental health workforce, we need to build upon and diversify our compassionate and inclusive leadership when delivering high quality care and diversify into new roles.
If you’d like the opportunity to work in a fast-paced, intriguing role then we’d love to hear from you!
